Today and this week I get to glimpse the life ahead.
My oldest daughter was accepted into a Tech program through this summer, her senior year, and will graduate soon after she finishes High school. She's doing Beauty school. (Like her Momma) So she leaves every evening through the week from 3-9. She is enjoying it and I think she will do a great job.
My second is gone for camp. She will be home a couple of weeks then off to Las Vegas to Nanny for my brothers kids. I have had this year to build my relationship with her. So I will be missing her something awful. But I think all of these things will be SO good for her.
The Hubbs is running his second Ironman this Sunday in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. I have a little apprehension for some reason and am trying to decide why. But I think he needs to go and I need to be here for my kids. Maybe I am just nervous for him. But he has trained hard and he has done it before.
SO this week it will mostly be my son and I. I have been home alone plenty of times. But right now it feels a little empty.
I really like this group of people I have been so blessed to live with. I have a great husband and I have fantastic kids. I am not liking the feeling as my "Nest" gets less crowded. But I think I am grateful to ease into the next phase with little glimpses instead of them all going at once.
