[quote=Anonymous]We have one newly-minted college grad living and working in Boston and one junior who is at a college in New England, as well as 2 kids still at home.  FWIW, all but the youngest are guys (can't say boys anymore, at least not with our oldest!).  We text 2-3 times a week -- either re logistics or just something humorous and light -- e.g., how about those Nats?  guess what the dog did?, etc.  We talk once or twice per week either on cell or via Skype (which I actually like more than I thought I would once I got used to it).  There is additional communication among sibs, which we hear about from the younger kids.  We're a pretty close family and I still miss them a lotl, though not as acutely as I did when they first went away.  I would also echo the point that a PP made about how you miss their friends -- after they get past the early adolescent snarky years, they actually become quite pleasant and interesting people to have around -- even though the guys do eat you out of house and home![/quote]
