But if you spend those years building strong relationships with them they will never want to live WITHOUT you.

It is sometimes scary to think of my kids growing up and not needing me. But seeing as I am 38 and still need my own mom sometimes.... *laughs* There have been namy times over the last 2 years I had called my mom not to talk, but just to hear her say Its gonna be ok. <BR/>And give hubby a hug and tell him thanks for all that he does.faery-wingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09431820165468772956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25897608.post-1152071800072650982006-07-04T20:56:00.000-07:002006-07-04T20:56:00.000-07:00It is so hard letting children become independent....It is so hard letting children become independent. I think (hope) I have achieved that with mine. But believe me when they reach their majority and ask for your opinion, it is so hard not to just tell them how they should do it. <BR/><BR/>Sounds like you have a handle on that though.

Believe me, I have 2 daughters 30 and 31, and they never stop needing their mama!loonyhikerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05378360383088143368noreply@blogger.com
