Ree Drummond revealed that being an empty nester isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. She shared that since daughters Alex and Paige and sons Bryce, Todd, and Jamar have all moved out, home takes on a different purpose. Drummond begged her kids, “Please come back,” after it appeared her husband Ladd was “making her” take on more work than before.
