Being Thankful For Your Empty Nest

Being Thankful For Your Empty Nest

Being You· The Nest

Holidays in an empty nest can be hard. It’s important that we find things to be thankful for, even during the changes that come with having adult kids.

It was given to my grandma for Christmas when she was 11.🎄🤔It really has me thinking about what we give our 11-year-olds today compared to this children's book. We don't let our kids remain innocent long enough!👉Side note - Howard Garis penned a new Uncle Wiggly story every day, except Sundays, for the Newark News for 52 years.🖊What family treasures do you have?#heirloom #familyheirloom #oldbook #oldbooks #belongedtomygrandma #familytreasure #familytreasures #vintagebook #vintagebooks #instagramover50 #50plus #over50andfabulous #ageisjustanumber #maturewoman #olderwomen #emptynester #grownandflown #betterafter50 #over50life #fullheartemptynest

A mama and her little ones - keeping them close an A mama and her little ones - keeping them close and protected. 🦢 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Do you miss the days where you're little ones were still in the nest?👶🧒👧 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I do at times but I try to remember that my job was to give my kids the tools they'd need and teach them to fly. The rest is up to them. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We wish we could protect them from everything life is going to throw at them but some of their best-learned lessons will come at the expense of some hard knocks. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It's their turn mama! Watch them fly! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #over50life #womanover50 #50pluswoman #fabover50 #50plusandfabulous #midlifewomen #emptynest #emptynesterlife #midlifer #thisismidlife #lovemykids #lovemyfamily #lovemyson #lovemydaughter #mothersandsons #mothersanddaughters #adultkids #nextchapter #nextchapterinlife #bigkids #alwaysmybaby #alwaysmybabyboy #alwaysmybabygirl
Have you heard of crystallized intelligence? 🤔 Have you heard of crystallized intelligence? 🤔 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Crystallized intelligence refers to the accumulation of knowledge, facts, and skills through experiences that are acquired throughout life. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ People often complain that they feel they're losing intelligence as they age. But contrary to that belief, research suggests crystallized intelligence increases as we age! As a matter of fact, it seems to hit it's peak somewhere around age 60 to 70. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The more you participate in new experiences and soak in new facts the more your crystallized intelligence grows! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So what new thing are you learning or what new experience have you recently had? Tell me in the comments..... ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Always seek for experiences that challenge you or push you out of your comfort zone a little. Pick a new subject to learn about and find a loved one to share in the journey with you! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You're never too old to grow! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #over50blogger #over50 #over50life #maturewomen #50andfabulous #50isthenew30 #emptynesters #grownkids #agepositive #lifeover50 #nevertooold #nevertoolate #abetterme #keepongoing #learnsomething #learnsomethingnew #nevertoooldtolearn #nevertoooldtotrysomethingnew #fullheartemptynest
What's on your mind tonight? What keeps spinning a What's on your mind tonight? What keeps spinning around in your head as it hits the pillow? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ There is so much going on right now that is beyond our individual control. It's overwhelming. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Friend, my prayer tonight is that you and I can leave it in God's hands and rest knowing He's still on the throne! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If there is anything I can pray about with you, please DM me. I'd be honored to pray for you tonight! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #womensupportingotherwomen #womenencouragingwomen  #womensupportingeachother #womenofimpact #trustgod #godlovesyou #godisfaithful #godisincontrol #womenintheword #faithblogger #graceupongrace #givemejesus #godisable #godsgotthis #thewordofgod #faithinspired #godspromises #trustgodsplan #lovedbygod #instagramover50 #50plus  #maturewoman #olderwomen #emptynester #over50life
With this virus, lockdowns, financial worries, pol With this virus, lockdowns, financial worries, politics, etc - I'm feeling a bit #overwhelmed these days. What about you? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ When I'm stressed I tend to freeze. I get stuck and can't seem to find my momentum again. I also tend to stress eat but, hey, can we just leave that for another day?! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This morning I came across this verse: Psalm 61:2 From the ends of the earth, I call to you,  I call as my heart grows faint;  lead me to the rock that is higher than I. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Two years ago my husband and I went to the grand canyon. From the rim we could see for miles and miles. This verse reminds me of those views ~ Lead me to the ROCK that is higher than I. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The rock that is higher than us is Christ. From His vantage point He can see the big picture. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This virus didn't surprise Him. None of what's happening right now comes as a surprise to Him. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ He's still in control. He's still on the throne. He's got this girl! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So if you're feeling overwhelmed today, call out to Him. Rest in His vantage point knowing nothing happens that is outside of His control! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #over50life #womanover50 #50pluswoman #midlifewomen #emptynest  #midlifer #thisismidlife #bibleverse #trustgod #godlovesyou #christianblogger #godisfaithful #godisincontrol #womenintheword #faithblogger #graceupongrace #givemejesus #godisable  #dailybible #godsgotthis #thewordofgod #faithinspired #godspromises #trustgodsplan #lovedbygod

Not only for exercising good physical self-care but for exercising good mental self-care as well! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #womenhelpingwomen #womensupportingotherwomen #womenencouragingwomen  #womensupportingeachother #womenofimpact #youarenotalone #doyou #dailyreminder #yourenotalone #yougotthisgirl #girlyougotthis #dontgiveup #midlifetransition #midlifeawakening  #primetimewomen #primetimewoman #rockingmidlife
