new beginnings

Well, we did it! Keys are turned in and we said goodbye to our little home. I have to say that it was such a confusing, emotional time. It truly was a transition for us while there, but I hate leaving memories behind.

I know that memories live on in your heart, but still. As I walked back through our now empty place, I was filled with the memory of Seth laughing, running with his friends, the day we brought Aaron home and I hated to leave them. I felt the same about our first home, and still get sad each time I drive by. Hahaa, I think I must be an emotional pack rat and want to carry them around with me everywhere. It all seems t be going and changing so fast, I can't keep up. I feel overwhelmed by all that I seem to be missing. I want to bottle every laugh, smile, hug, each I love you and then, when these times are gone I have my bottles and memories to go back to.

I sure it's just because of all that we have going on right now and when things get a little more settled I will feel more settled. So on to a happier note...

I'm proud of John and I for our little apt that was all our own. I loved our first house and knowing that I had grown up there, but there was something to the apt being 'just ours'. I look forward to where we are going in life and the journey with all my boys will be an exciting one for sure. So as we start our new beginning for 2010, I can't think of a better way to start it then in the words of my Seth...
COM'ON GUYS, LET'S DO THIS THING!!!!!
