You sound a lot like me when I talk about how I feel about my children leaving home. I get pretty much the same speech from everyone: "You've done your job because they are great kids and ready to fly from the nest." And inside my head the answer is always the same: "but when they leave, who AM I? At least I know I've always been a good mom. Now what?"
The same goes for being smart. Maybe because my mom valued it above everything else. Maybe because it is something that can't be taken away.
Sounds like a very important "aha" for you. So now what?
