I so love this! My youngest is 14 and I cherish every hug and conversation so very much!

Yes! I think having a child so late in life has helped me appreciate every moment so much more. I don’t think I would have as much when I was younger.

The best part about raising kids is watching them become whole people. People who say things like yours did. Thank you for sharing.

It reminded me of the time when I received a text from my adult college student child: "Lunch at Qdoba tomorrow?" I texted back: "Thanks for the invite, but I suspect that you didn't mean to text me." My kid loves me, but not enough to spontaneously have lunch with me - unless I am inviting them. It was not, in fact, meant for me :-).

Divorced life is still full of great Mom moments. You're doing a great job maneuvering the adventure.
