Empty nesters! I wish that was here!! 3 yrs ago DH and I tried and tried to convince DD to go away to college....no go. On her last year and refuses to leave us. (but what if something happens to me?)She says. I say I can get there in 2 shakes by plane. She's a huge worrier!

Now it's time to get applications out to colleges for my son.He's in his senior yr of HS. And wouldn't you know it HE DOESN'T WANT TO GO AWAY EITHER!!!

DH and I are firm believers that kids need to grow up away from their families too. We have taught and prepared our kids to be self reliant and independant. We love our kids dearly but what are we to do!

I think you all have done a great job preparing and sending them off. Any suggestions for me?

Thanks, Sue (my kids in avatar)
