Surly NonTeenager moved in with The BoyFriend this week.
It was so cute. She actually called and asked my permission. Then later that night when Hubby and I went by to see the place, she says "I was surprised you let me". Hubby and I cracked up. She looked confused, so Hubby asks her "how exactly could we stop you?". She looks over at me and I nod and say "you are 20 after all". She gets this 'oh, really?' look on her face and asks, "so I can go wherever I want"? I kind of laughed and said in an obviously joking way "no, go pack your clothes, you're coming home with us". She smiled a little and said "no" like she was trying it out. I shrugged and said "ok". She looked a little amazed. It was very amusing.
And so the nest is empty.
It's weird, she would spend the night out all the time. Sometimes for a couple of days at a time. But even when she was gone it still always felt like she was 'around'.
Now that she has officially moved out, it feels different. She feels gone. The house feels emptier.
And kinda weird.
It's not a bad feeling. Just weird. Different. It's going to take some getting used to.
