Understanding Empty Nest Syndrome For The First Time.

I never quite knew what people felt when their kids went off to school and onto work and the house was empty. I didn't quite get why they felt sad about this. Hey! You get your life back now that the kids are gone! Stop whining!

Only now that the Masons have left I totally get it.

No baby crawling around and talking to entertain us and to also make us all wonder if a third kid would have been more fun than we thought. No extra awesome guy around to make you remember you've married a great guy too. No great woman who inspires you to be more than you ever thought possible.

Most of all no reason to light a fire in the fireplace.

Also no more porn jokes.

I miss the Masons.

I totally understand what you're saying (though I don't have kids of my own, I love having my nephews around!) about everything except the sudden lack of porn jokes. There's no need to torture yourselves!
