    Sleep at home. I've almost got an empty nest and they still have 2 and 3 years before college!

    I would have to say nothing, we just found out that we are expecting our second so I guess although I gave up a lot with my first now that he is over two, I think I am going to be getting all that stuff again!

    I really like this list. I miss Sesame Street and snuggling with my Tukey in the a.m. watching Curious George. And they're starting to not need me so much, and that is painful.

    Sob. There needs to be some kind of warning for things like this.
