My twenty year old (expectant Mommy) is coming over tonight to do some work. She is going to spend the night, so we will have a nice little visit. I feel blessed these days to have my girls living so close and being able to visit so often. I know I will miss these visits when my daughter goes back to Va. in March. I really secretly hope she doesn't go though. I would like her to stay, but I know she has her own life and needs to do what she wants to do. We can't live their life for them. They should be able to choose what they want to do and how they want to do it.

It is great that you are able to spend a lot of time with your daughter. I know that for me, I decided from the time that I was a young girl that I would never really move very far away from my Mommy. The main reason that I didn't want to be away from my mother is because of the fact that she is the only parent that I have since my father passed away when I was only fourteen years old. However, the other reason that I never want to be very far away from Mom is because of the fact that she is one of the best friends that I have.

My oldest daughter has moved back home, but one of my middle daughters is moving back to Virginia in February. She'll be here for Valentines day and then she is leaving. She is due for her baby in May and wants to have it in Va. If I want to see the baby, I will have to go to Va. to see it.
I'll be moving myself with my two youngest kids in June. I probably won't move to far away, but I am moving. I've lived with Mom long enough.

Yes, we need to give our adult children wings. And roots as well. But they do need their wings. My daughter was planning to move to a different state and now, due to her work situation (she didn't get the job she hoped for in that different state) she plans to stay. She lives in the same city as I do, but in a different area.
I would be happy for her - either way. But I am glad she is still near by. I do hope that she can get a better job though. And I do wish her happiness.
