Empty nest
Today our daughter Sarah and her boyfriend Bill began the three day drive to Tampa, Florida, where they will be living. Tampa is a long ways from Denver. We're used to seeing her at least 1-2 a month. We'll probably be lucky to see her much more than once or twice a year. This is a major change for us. After losing David (mockery), Sarah's presence in our lives was very comforting.
I never really felt like we had an empty nest. With both David and Sarah going to college at CU Boulder (only 45 minutes from our home in Lakewood), we were together often. This will be very different for us. We'll be ok and we're already planning our first trip to Tampa (for Thanksgiving), but we will miss our frequent time together. The empty nest has finally arrived.
