Out of the Nest. A blog about launching children, and yourself, out of the nest and into the world. Monday, June 1, 2015. It will never be the same. and that's good. I was so excited for Katy to get home last weekend after her first year at Luther College in Decorah, IA! She has had such a great year and is turning into the confident, amazing young woman we always knew she would. Andy did it when he came home after his first year. Why did it surprise me this time? I should have been more than ready!

Out of the Nest. A blog about launching children, and yourself, out of the nest and into the world. Tuesday, July 22, 2014. The world according to Shoodiya. The last month has been one adventure after another adventure after another! It's also been super busy with work and house stuff etc. Our special guest for the summer, my niece Julia, has taught us some very important life lessons and I want to share them with you on this, her 20th birthday. 2) EVERYTHING is fun! 3) do it now. 4) just get through it.

Out of the Nest. A blog about launching children, and yourself, out of the nest and into the world. Friday, May 8, 2015. And one leaves the nest. So 22 years ago this weekend I was graduating from UConn with my MA in HDFS (Human Development and Family Studies), days away from my 25th birthday and weeks away from welcoming the young man who would change my life forever. This little one would teach me so much starting with his birth! Some of the moments are not enjoyable! Here's the thing. While he is ...

Out of the Nest: November 2014
http://outofthenest-jane.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Out of the Nest. A blog about launching children, and yourself, out of the nest and into the world. Wednesday, November 26, 2014. Staying out of the way. I can explain it in so many ways - she contacts me via text, phone, fb and FaceTime on a regular basis. She's in a place that we know well and love, so even though it's far away, I can picture where she is at any given time. This is comforting. I don't think any of these are really the true answers though. I want them to be their own best selves and to ...

Out of the Nest: September 2014

Out of the Nest. A blog about launching children, and yourself, out of the nest and into the world. Wednesday, September 10, 2014. I am in awe. We dropped Katy off at Luther College on August 30th and I have a feeling that by the time she graduates in 2018, she will know, not just everyone on campus, but everyone in Decorah, IA. In the 2 plus weeks she has been there, she has ventured out on her own more than I ever could have imagined as a scared college freshman in 1986. That takes all my energy! Katy ...

Out of the Nest: June 2015

Out of the Nest. A blog about launching children, and yourself, out of the nest and into the world. Friday, June 19, 2015. My anger has passed and I really don't want to remember this day of celebration for so many with glimpses of the worst in ourselves. I really do believe that humans by nature are good. I believe that the country we live in is an amazing place. I believe that we do have the power to change what isn't working. I believe that we are only stronger when we have a higher power to call upon.

Out of the Nest. A blog about launching children, and yourself, out of the nest and into the world. Saturday, August 23, 2014. Love and Thanksgiving to Camp Calumet. So many thoughts and "feels". Over the next week I will be writing more. It helps me process and distracts me. First on the list in my brain is a love letter to Camp Calumet Lutheran. Dear Camp Calumet,. They have learned to be themselves- they are so much more sure of who they are than I ever was- I don't always agree with them, but I'm so ...

Out of the Nest: March 2015

Out of the Nest. A blog about launching children, and yourself, out of the nest and into the world. Sunday, March 8, 2015. One week and I bring my girl home for a short visit. The first time since Thanksgiving. I am so excited to have her home! The boy will be home for about 36 hours when the girl is home, so all my chicks will be here for a brief time. It's hard being a mama when her chicks are far from home. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. This Is NOT About Knitting.
