Had a "empty nest" moment...
Something just reminded me of this:
My mom always used to say when I would tell her (usually flustered) about the kids' latest scheme or mess or disaster...
She'd smile and say "You're gonna miss this."
I always said NO WAY! cant WAIT till they are gone and I can keep stuff the way I like it...
Well it turns out she's right. ...and maybe I'm not as much of a clean freak as I used to be
