The Boys are Back!

It has been crazy around our house. Why? The boys are back!

The college semester, has come to an end, which means, as the college doors close, mine open:)

My laundry is multiplying like rabbits, and the grocery bill just doubled.

The amount of keys,wallets,hats,books,laptops and cars have grown considerably, and the basement storage is now full of dorm furniture and bedding.

What does a mother do, when the boys come home? Enjoy it!

When your Adult children move back home, whether it is temporary landing, or a longer stint, it is time to have a "meeting".

Take a few moments, and sit down together as a family, and discuss your expectations of each other, during their time at home. House rules need to be established and agreed upon.

Open communication, from the very beginning of their stay, leads to an enjoyable, memory filled summer!
