5. All three sons went to college. The oldest two, just finished Jr. College. My youngest graduated and became a high school coach and teacher.
Suzanne, you have been on my mind lately as your nest will be empty as so many others I have been reading about. I remember the empty nest sadness and the crying as each one went off on their own, but I can tell you from experience, that it gets easier, and you will be so proud that you raised children that can make it on their own. Our empty nest became a love nest as hubby and I got to know each other all over again without kids around. LOL
