Another milestone

Congratulations to Bobby and Suse on the purchase of their new home!  So proud of these kids.  They really know the value of a dollar and they worked very hard to make this possible.  It is a beautiful house that they turned into a home in just minutes.  Their love is so evident the moment you walk through the door. 

I can't help but wonder if our job, as parents, is finished?  All the kids are settled.  All the kids seem happy.  Do they need us anymore?  Other than worrying about them, I am not sure there is anything else we can do for them!   Mr. Wonderful and I are so proud of all our kids... It is not their accomplishments that awe us, but the fact that they are really and truly "good" people.

Our entire marriage can be classified in stages: 
We were newlyweds for 10 minutes
We had kids
The kids were all in school
I went back to work
The kids started moving out
WE SURVIVED THE TEEN YEARS - (it only took 22 years!)
Mr. W. retired
The kids started coming back home
The kids moved out again

I wonder what the next stage is???
