Three years into this empty nest chapter, and I’m still figuring it out as I go. When both boys left for college, the quiet hit fast and so did the need to rediscover who I was beyond the busy days of raising twins. So, I dove into my page to keep my mind busy and to connect with other moms walking this same road. Since then, I’ve learned a few things: how to pray them through each new season, how to let go of Life360 for everyone’s sanity, and how to fill the silence with purpose (and sometimes, just a good walk and coffee). This carousel is for the moms who’ve gone from a full house to an empty one overnight. For the ones learning to reconnect with themselves, their spouse, and their faith. Here’s to finding peace in the quiet, joy in the in-between, and grace in every goodbye. Save this for later—or share it with another mom who might need to hear it today. You are not alone.
