Empty Nest and Transitions

June 29, 2009 | by Natalie Caine | No Comments

Parents are dealing with hellos and goodbyes this summer.

Relatives and friends are coming to visit.
Children are coming back home.
Change is inevitable as I always say, but that doesn’t mean we like it.

Melissa called today confused with wanting them to come home and not wanting to deal with their differences. She knows it is fun for about a week. Then she falls into good mom and losing herself.

Can you relate?

What would you suggest she do to take care of herself besides for locking the door and the car keys when she gets frustrated?

Forget the bubble bath idea and cookies and milk.
 
Any wild ideas that no one really wants to talk about or thinks they shouldn’t say?

Stay tune for summer tips and stories.

Happy summer,
Natalie
