Moving Away

Hey all!

I wanted to thank especially those in this post who helped us all to move last weekend and took their time and strength to help us get on our way. I think you know we certainly never could have done it without you. We love you all. I miss you already! Bria is settling in to her new room and a new routine. I was worried about her, especially right before we left. She would walk around the house and cry, not sure what was going on on or where all her stuff was going. She clung to her quilt she always sleeps with, carrying it everywhere for fear it would disappear too. The night before we left, she was in the floor in the kitchen, crying inconsolably. I felt so badly for her. Clearly she had no words for how she was feeling. Neither did I. I just held her, trying to comfort her, crying as well. I think that is one of the harder things to do as a parent, something nobody tells you and you just have to learn. How to hold your children and reassure them everything is alright when you aren't sure it is yourself. When your whole world feels upside down and inside out. Because you have to hold yourself together for someone other than yourself. Sorry. Just thinking out loud. But anyways, on a happier note she is doing very well and we are getting somewhat unpacked and organized. It is amazing how it seems that whatever it is you need is never accessible. Oh, and the van sort of is spraying coolant everywhere so has become undrivable. So that is getting fixed. Anyways, hope everything is going well for you all. We really miss you! Hopefully we will see you soon. Love you all!
