Is she happy? Yes. Is she thriving? Yes. Do I wish she could do the happy and thriving thing at home? Yes. And no. She’s where she is supposed to be. It’s my journey as a teen parent to launch them, but that hole in your heart ❤️ is still there. My friend Amber says we are not empty nesters we are bird launchers. I like that. Gonna steal it.
For all mamas and papas readjusting to the silence back in the house again, I see you. I’d be happy to come over at 1 AM and make nachos, kick over a Stanley cup right in the middle of a conversation, dent your fender, leave your gas tank empty, borrow (and lose) your phone chargers and have mystery door dash charges. But you have to do the same for me. Deal? Sending love your way mama. #genxmom #birdlauncher #daughters
