When they tired of that they'd figure something else out with pots and pans and spoons and spatulas. Best toys ever. And I completely, 100% agree with you on laundry, cooking, and such. Keep those little hands busy with useful things, I say. Thanks for this post.

And I drove 3 children under the age of 8 to Texas and back multiple times (by myself) so you can imagine how many kicks the back of my car seat received. I think I still have bruises, lol.

She died at the young age of 64 after a battle with cancer, shortly before Mother's Day in 2006 and I miss her every single day. She was my best friend, my one continual source of unconditional love, and my biggest inspiration. <3 <br /><br />If you&#LynnBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17100470790869740353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2442063056672240555.post-85968149207556357342017-05-09T07:52:31.524-07:002017-05-09T07:52:31.524-07:00Great post Patricia.

I've been going through the "almost empty nest" stage recently, so I have spent many days crying as I reflect on my children growing up while watching my oldest son prepare to move away from home in August.
