Who is an Empty Nester

October 7

To the world, Joy and I are empty nesters, yet there is a crowd under our roof.There's Molly, which is my endearing name for Joy. Molly is also the name of her cloth rabbit that she claims jumped off a store shelf one day right into her arms. She has a witness.

There are Punkie, Mouse, Slob and the powder fairy, no explanations offered. There are Karl, the controller and Mary Ann, the manipulator. We sent them off to live unhappily together. However, it is our focus to keep God in the center of our marriage that fills our house with love.

"Therefore what God has joined together, let no man separate." (Matthew 19:6)
