The Birth of a Writer

Every parent eventually faces the empty-nest syndrome, but a stay-at-home mom gets a sampling of that emptiness when her kids excitedly trek to kindergarten. Suddenly the days that had been filled with play-dates and laughs are now quiet, and the house seems larger than it used to.

Quotes by Karen Tjebben (?)

“After Nick rescued Kate from an attack at the football game they talk as he drives her home. "I said that because I really did see a monster." I looked at Nick as we turned a corner in the road. "You don't think I'm crazy do you?"

I like that quote because it symbolizes the transition in Kate's life. She has turned a corner in her life. She unknowingly has left the path of childish freedom and started down a path of danger and responsibility.”
