By shrinking in stature beside my children, my ability to strike them dumb with disbelief has inflated exponentially! Bit of a win win situation! Till they plonk me in a home of course. |

I'm sure they miss you too Mike. Only one of mine has left home. She wasn't noisy but house seems much quieter. Still have her bedroom ready for her, even though she's not far away. |

I'm sure they miss you too Mike. Now that reminds me, tomorrow I better make their old beds after cleaning all the junk out of their rooms and washing all that bedding last week. Cheers. |

As a parent you can count on one to move back home for some reason and or time. Yes! Isn't it lovely! And then you can revisit those moments years ago when you wondered why children didn't come with a little "off" button :) |
