Is it obsessive
* to look at the moon and think ‘damn what’s the point of coming out now when the kids have slept’… they soooo love to see the moon. * when I’m out without the kids and people look at me and say ‘oh I almost didn’t recognise you without the two little ones’. * to shout out ‘look aeroplane’, then realise the kids are not with me and I’m out on the road alone with people looking at me like I’m crazy. * to look at Hrit and Naisha and think.. no not just think… really believe no one has kids as sweet and special as mine. * to experience a moment of mad panic when I don’t feel two tiny hands in mine and then realise I didn’t bring the kids out with me.
Notes from an almost-empty-nester
Thanks Ambika.. it's a relief to hear it from another mum!
