As I sit on my porch today, looking out over that same beach, I am now contemplating my life's next chapter...my baby is heading to college in less than a month...and I will be an empty nester.
I am trying not to freak out. I didn't fight so hard two years ago to survive stage three colo-rectal cancer to not enjoy life now....right? I am determined to fill my empty nest with joy...because, after all...I still have...
four kids (who really want me to stop focusing so much on them)
a beautiful soon-to-be daughter in law
this good man who has put up with me for 27 years
four sisters who are stuck with me (that is me in the middle)
and these two troublemakers.
It's all good.
