Tomorrow DD3 is leaving for her two day drive to Utah for college. She won't be home again until Christmas. Also tomorrow DD2 is moving her furniture and most of her stuff to her college 1 1/2 hours away. She'll come home tomorrow night (Thank you, God) then leave for good in the morning. SIGHHHHHHHH
Tonight, DD1 is putting extensions in DD3's hair. DD3 forgot the extensions so I "delivered" them to her. I felt like a delivery person. They didn't want me to come inside. What the hay? I am very close to my kids and have never gotten the "don't want mom around." Kinda makes me wonder what corruption DD1 is trying to get DD3 in...they are eons apart in morals and values. I realize that sounds mean but I am tired and very sad tonight.
I just took my nightly pills and am going to bed. But I'm so sad.

Sorry you are feeling down. I have 3 dd's too, and while we are still quite a ways from them all leaving the nest, I am already starting to realize how soon it will come and how hard it will be to let them go. Which Utah school is your dd going to?

Or maybe it has nothing to do with "corruption" and they just want to spend some time alone together before moving on to the next phase of their life... Also... kind of a crappy thing to say about your DD1, regardless if you are tired and sad. Sorry you are feeling sad, but saying mean things about your children doesn't excuse it or make it right.

Its great that they still bond as siblings and enjoy each others company. Sometimes the way a parent treats one child may make the other children resentful. Sorry you are feeling sad.

Is it mean? Realistically, our children are individuals who make their own choices. They aren't angels all of the time. They each have their own codes by which they live. To say they are different to me declares nothing more than the obvious. As their mother, I would presume she knows a little more about them as individuals than you or I. Hope your own code about kicking someone when they are upset isn't what always guides you. OP, letting go is always hard. I think this stage is the most difficult. It wasn't that long ago they were all ours. Hugs to you. |
