Everyone is having some buyers remorse to put it in a nutshell. :)
That is normal.
It sounds like you kids were pretty much taking care of things, and the folks enjoy living there and seeing the farm working and helping a bit here and there.
In a few months, everyone will realize you kids are taking care of things, and the folks are living there and watch the farm working, and pitch in a little here and there.
And all that has changed is some paperwork in a safe somewhere, and things are still good and normal down on the farm.
It will come around.
Yes it feels a little strange for a week or month or so.
But that passes, and it is much better for everyone.
It does pass, things will be fine.
Back in the day when dad passed 1/3 of the farm on to me the way we did it, it seemed strange too. A month later he was bossing me around just like always, and he had all his normal say on what a knot head I was running his land like always every year in the past. ;). Mom planted the garden and raked the leaves just like always.
It was good.
Mom got sick that late summer, and passed on a few later, dad never could handle household stuff on his own and was fading as it was, and had to be assisted living. Those are the tough times....
I think I can relate to where you are pretty well.
Enjoy what you have, it is good now. Not every day is sunshine, but its pretty good.... Take some time with them, and enjoy what is there. Don't look back, don't look forward. Just enjoy today.
