It's really hard adjusting to not having kids around. I've replaced all the activity my two daughters generated with four 4-legged kids. I love the company they provide, but most of the time I long for the piles of laundry, ringing phone and the constant chit-chat of having the girls home. On the upside, my husband and I have tons of time to do the things we want to do, like taking day trips, playing golf and being able to have a lengthy conversation without interruption!
