We're taking MIL to the aiport in about 30 minutes.

It's nice but a little sad. It's hard to have someone live in your house for so long but she was a huge help with Julian. I mean, I feel like I was a bit spoiled as a mother from the first month to the 7th month of Julian's life. But oh well...it was quite the experience. I wrote her a nice letter thanking her and we gave her some pretty earrings.

:whew It's finally over.

That's a relief.

You are going to do great without her. Really.

And how is your recovery going? (If you don't want to answer that in this thread, that's cool.)

I"m glad for the sake of your sanity that she's leaving. :)

I won't believe it until she is on the plane and the plane has taken off!

I know you were glad to have the help, but that lady is impossible!

you're free!!!

you must be so, so, so relieved! I mean, partially maybe in a way sad to have this stage of your life over, but no more adult child in the house, with grapefruit accusations and superexcessive telephone calling and who knows what else. I think it will be really good for you and Bo to just do the nuclear family thing for a while!

hope the transition goes well!

You're about to get your life back-- yay!

But I can totally understand missing her some. I am sure she contributed a lot, even though she was wacky. :lol

Yay for an end to the aggravation!

I can totally understand why you would be a little sad even with all the extra aggravation she caused. But I agree with the others who said that it is time for you, Bo and Julian to just be your own little family and enjoy each other - without added grapefruit drama!

Yeah, it's called Stockholm Syndrome.
