Being a parent is really difficult when you have small children...Being a parent is really difficult when you have grown children. Age is not a factor when it comes to parenting...Our youngest son is a grown man. He and a buddy went on a wild, backpacking adventure trip last week.
I received the following photo and text via iphone.
"This is where I'm staying in Puerto Viejo, Costa Rica for $8 a night.
(I'm not joking.)"

You are so right that having our children grown does not eliminate our concern for them. I've heard it said that the first 10 years of parenting are physically hard and the second 10 years are mentally hard.....I think that 2nd 10 years lasts a lot longer than 10 years.
I must have missed this somewhere - I didn't know you had a son or that he was gone. Sorry. Glad he is home!
