Description
This individually hand-crafted Empty Nest Stone is made of durable glazed pottery which can last a lifetime. At about 1.5 inches, it is sized to fit in a pocket, blessing bowl, or a faith chest. Purchase one or more to gift to others as a meaningful reminder of this milestone.
This stone complements the Empty Nest Milestone Module. When children leave the home to go out on their own it can be a surprise for some parents, as life has focused on the needs, activities, and achievements of the children as they graduate, choose a college, prepare for marriage, or military service, etc. Some parents may not be prepared for the sense of emptiness and quietness that now surrounds them, especially as the last child leaves home. It is important to recognize this life-changing stage in people's lives and to honor this transition in the lives of both parent and child. This Empty Nest stone for gifting is a wonderful keepsake to help parents remember this significant life transition of children leaving the home and the joy, sense of loss, challenges, change, and memories of this important time.
