            Toto - I had to let my son go and he did some of what I expected (bumming around on friends sofa's) and some of what I didn't expect (holding down a job for two years)
You have to let them go and make their own way and decisions and even their own mistakes. As long as the door is always open for them to come back when they are in trouble then you are half way there....Quality is doing something right when no one is looking - Henry Ford

            I bought Madame Bovery (or however you spell it) from the charity shop the other week there, but reading a 10 year old chick lit at the moment called Rubber Gloves or Jimmy Choos. Will read a "real book" after my chick lit
I'll stick to my trashy magazines!
...Linda xxIt's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.0 -

Thanks Sammy, it's all just come out of the blue a bit. You are right, he is an adult and I have to let him go and do his own thing. It's hard though isn't it. I can't imagine not having him living here.
Jaz is over the moon about it, she said. Great, I get his room and if he comes back he can sleep on the sofa because when I move into his room I am not moving out again.:rotfl: Can you feel the love in this house.:A

            Mirrors the love in our house....My DS and DD can't stand each other and when he comes to visit she says - he is NOT staying in my bed....
Once they have gone you do get used to it. I for one would find it hard to have DS move back in....he pongs a bit!Quality is doing something right when no one is looking - Henry Ford
