Hi:) I have been overwhelmed – work and my boys – coming and going – now they are both gone – the furthest I have ever been separated from them and it is killing me, I am afraid. Please do not get me wrong, I am extremely happy for them and want them to be where they are and doing what they are doing, I just have this horrible pain inside – an ache – i really miss them. (btw, thank yo for asking -how are you? i have not been here very much at all. I am trying to reverse that)

I just “felt” this sadness with you is why I asked, I am fine…life is pretty good. I have been having some stomach issues though..have IBS, but
that’s because I live in the South and
ALL the food here is probably NOT good for any of us LOL!! I eat and drink
my sweet tea anyway, paying the price…oh, such is life LOL!! I have been
working too, having a social life, BUT, I
plan on getting some rest this weekend..we shall see LOL! I understand your feelings about your
sons…my daughter will be a senior
this Fall, and life awaits her, and it scares me too. I am all too aware of
the ache…anytime you want to
talk, send me a email or I could give
you my number, we could talk or text,
let me know:)

I think of leaving, moving to a new place, seek adventure but then, I look at my daughter and can’t see myself being far from her. I guess the time will come but how difficult it is. She will turn 21 soon and already moved out with her boyfriend but every time I see her I want to take her in my arms and protect her, because after all, she still my baby.

Beautiful sadness.
Must be hard not having them around.
Even though mine are only 4 and a half and 9 months, time is moving so fast. Eric starts school after the summer and will change so much. Time is hard on parents.

As always you express yourself very well. How are you holding up, Kimberely?

I have always thought letting out those emotions through words is healing. The picture you choose is peaceful yet your words color it with the emotions you felt when you wrote. What are you afraid of?

I was thinking about the fact I had never been so far away from my children before. One is in LA and the other was in Italy at the time and I felt completely helpless. I still do.

I am not a mom but I can understand your vulnerability.. The brightness surrounding the sun as it sets makes me think of the love that surrounds your children…love you have and give now.. And the beautiful mirror image on the water….trusting..we know that as the sun sets it rises again each morning…..hugs

Hello there.
Hope you’re keeping well. It’s strange not having you around.
Just wanted to say hi and offer a shoulder if you need one.
Take care x
