The End is Drawing Near...

It is so strange, we are moving away from our townhome. It is just really starting to sink in now, I guess with all of the chaos of getting a whole house packed you forget to really contemplate what is about to happen. I'm getting sentimental and sappy, thinking of all of the memories. As I look around the house, I see empty walls, empty cupboards and a lot of piles of boxes waiting to be moved. It feels like I'm leaving an old friend in a way. I feel like we are deserting it, it's funny. We have over 5 years of great memories, including bringing home our first child and now it sits almost empty, waiting for our final departure. This week has been a lot of "lasts"...our last drive home from church on Sunday, our last garbage day, you get the idea. We've known nothing else for the last 5 years so we are grieving the loss of our normalness and getting ready to embrace a new norm! We are sad to say goodbye to our townhome, it has treated us well. I may shed some tears on Friday night or Saturday morning as we pull away for the last time, but we believe we are pulling away to an even more exciting place. We are looking forward to the future but we will always remember the great times we've had here!
