My time...when is that?

When is it time for me?

I raised my children, they are successful and out of college. I am bored now b/c they no longer come over for dinner.  They no longer come over to eat after soccer practice, baseball practice...I no longer see my friend's children...they've graduated from college...It was so much fun...I loved it!

Fast forward...after my last child went to college I moved from PA to FL...I love it...while they were in college I saw them often. Now, they have graduated and they are "stuck" in job's where, as newbies...they have little vacation...2 week's a year is the norm for a new employee,,,

Geeze, do I ever miss those college dazzzz...when they brought their friends down to Florida for a week...

Times flies so fast...it seem's like yesterday...now I take off to go see them,,,

POINT HERE: Enjoy your children while you can...the fun for me is now fabulous memories....I would love to have them back...When they all came over after school and said, "Mama Monsour...what's for dinner?" and I scrambled to cook something up...I always did, they helped me cook as well...now I miss them and that frustration for the moment.

Live and love each day with your children...one day, you will miss your children and their friends....

So happy to hear when my children's friend's call and reminisce with me...or when they call and tell me how well they are doing...it's PRICELESS.

Treasure your children...they grow up so fast!
