I took a break away for a just a few days
from my work
stopping was so what I needed
Filling my heart up with my children and grand daughter
well three out of four of my children
not enough is said about how Mothers go when their children leave home
and what we experience
it was twenty five years for me
which came to an abrupt finish with three weeks notice
that was two years ago
and my heart still aches
ten of those years were spent as a Mum flying solo full time - loved those years and also they were so very challenging
my radar was permanently switched to “on”
I actually so miss the cooking, sharing dinners at the table, hearing all about their days, all of it
I lived for all those moments
It was always the simple things
It’s quiet now and I have to dig deep often, be with the quietness and the missing my heart feels
I got to see all three of my four children in one day and my grand daughter too
That’s very rare and makes me sooooo happy, warm and filled right up to the top and bursting over
I knew I wanted to be a Mum ever since I was 8 years old
I wanted all my children to stay cutesie 4 year olds
My heart never thought about that day they would actually leave home
I naively thought they’d always be with me
I long for those moments of connection and feeling them close
nothing can compare
Nothing♥️
Thank you my beautiful children and grand daughter - love you to the stars and Moon and back…..and more
