I resigned from a really great job to follow my husband who was posted in another town. I took up my role of full time mother, thing is that my children don't need me anymore so I find myself feeling lonely. My youngest is 16 and I feel that he is getting more and more independant too. Finally I decided to study french this year, I speak it fluently but my written work is terrible, I've started dance lessons and I've joined a Choir but I still get this feeling of emptiness even though I try to keep myself busy. I feel that the children and my husband have their lives and I'm just waiting for them to come home in the evening so I can start living again. Really strange feeling.
