The Ties That Bind

Ok, so I am super excited that we finally have an answer. At the same time, any time I think about leaving my friends, family and community here I totally bust up crying. It doesn't help (and this is NOT a complaint) that when some people hear the news they reply, "Oh, how sad" or "Oh no! You can't leave!" Don't get me wrong- if I could take my entire group of friends and neighbors with me, I would do it.

I am so glad we will be missed- we are going to miss the H-E-Double Hockey Sticks out of you guys, too. But I don't want to think about it yet- I will cry the entire flight over, I PROMISE. Until that time, I want to share laughter with you guys, and photos, and wine, and tears, but most of all TIME. Let us soak you in one more time before we go, because it's going to feel like a drought once we get there.
