It's this charged combination of stress and joy and anxiety and excitement. When they're away, you've got a sudden loss of purpose and this ever-present fear about the kid's welfare. The departure of our children from our nest is not an easy thing.” YearsChildrenTwoFeelingsKidsSchoolJoyPurposeThreeEasyLossFiveFourAnxietyStressOur ChildrenCombinationWelfareExcitementTwo YearsFour YearsIrrationalNestsDepartureEasy ThingsTwo Year OldsPre School Author:Vera Farmiga
