Nurture vs Nature

I am one who is nurturing. Who loves to spend time with my children.Who is aware that now that they are adults I  have less influence on their decision making.

I always feel sad when Carey & Pam go back home. I know that they have their own lives, but I do enjoy being around them and miss them when they are at their home. 

Our conversations always bring up things that are interesting to think about when they have gone home.
