DS1 left for Australia at the end of February. To be with his lovely fiancee who is an Aussie, and who had lived with us for two years til her visa ran out. She is his soul mate, I adore her and couldn't be happier with his (and her) choice of mate. He has a couples visa and will probably eventually take Aussie citizenship,
But we can't go to him, he can't come to us..thanks Covid. He will miss his sister's (tiny) wedding next month.
And six months apart, the longing for him, his voice (he's a singer/songwriter) his hugs, his presence in my life, is overwhelming. It's like a dragging physical pain.
He's 27, happy, working, they have a place together and I am happy for them. But dear god I miss my son so so much.
I never ever say this when he pops up on fb video. He knows anyway as we were so close, I was his 'tester' for new songs and many musical discussions.
But it's hard to have your first born child 10000 miles away...
