I hate to tell you this, but one of my sons has been back once, and the other has been back twice, and he's here now and he's 28!
Don't you be bragging about empty nesting until it's a done deal!
Mimi, the trick is to move house as soon as the last one leaves - and don't leave a forwarding address! They can't come back if they can't find you!
