The In-Between
In all my years as a mom I have never been so sad on a birthday.
I woke up weepy and my burbling emotions ebbed and flowed throughout the day.
A few weeks prior to this I was chatting with someone else and her empty nest experience was the opposite.
It sounded like Margaritaville at her house and it didn’t even need to be 5 o’clock anywhere.
Somehow life tilts itself back into balance no matter if we want it to or not.
Icing on the Cake
I have no idea where this blog and my website will take me and I am doing my best to make peace with this fact.
It’s a real bummer once your kids get self-sufficiently awesome, then it is time for them to pack it up and head on out.
I am handling my oldest’s senior year as well as any sensitive empath might.
Timing-wise the simultaneous launch of dianadevaul.com and Oakley’s arrival was not ideal in hindsight, but I am beyond grateful for both.
Anything beyond this will just be icing on a well-loved cake.
