Update on Jessica’s Move

Filed under: Personal

Well, she finally moved ALL of her things to HER house on Saturday, June 20. It didn’t hit me until last night that she was actually moved out. I had a thermonuclear breakdown. Really. I cried so hard that I couldn’t breathe. I don’t see how other parents actually want their kids to move out. I knew it would be hard, but not this hard. It was like a part of me was gone.  On the other hand, I have the assurance that I have raised her to be self-sufficient (except the ‘can’t cook’ part – but she is learning). I know that God will take care of her now just like He always has.  You ladies who have children that have moved out, PLEASE give me some suggestions.

Teresa, I’m sorry for what you’re going through. I completely understand. It won’t long. Really. I promise. Now it’s time for you! Celebrate!

I should be celebrating, but I have a 17 and 5 year old still at home. It is getting better though. I made it through the night last night without crying. Thanks for the support.

Hang in there Teresa. I am sure it will get better and you will be the one giving me advice in a few years. :-)

I sure hope so. She got her phone turned on so at least now I can talk to her. And she “comes home” every other day to swim with Layla and eat mom’s cooking. She said for me not to worry that I did a good job in raising her. That meant a lot. I guess it just takes time.
