We got buried under a foot of snow today and there is more on the way. Brenton had to take the van to work because it's more reliable and has better traction so the kids and I have been snowed in. It sounds like it's going to be more of the same tomorrow so it will be another day indoors. I usually don't mind the snow if I don't need to out in it, but I think this cold and snow is starting to affect my mood. Maybe it's because I've been without a pop or any sugar for almost 9 days. Or maybe it's because I am getting sad about our dear friends and neighbors packing up and moving in the next week. It's weird to think about them not being there anymore. I think I've been in denial for the past 6 months thinking that it wasn't real. For the past 2 years we have shared meals, pregnancy tests, eggs, milk, sour cream (basically any ingredient needed to complete a meal) tears, laughs, frustrations, and fun. I am so sad to see them moving. What will I do with out them? Who will watch the kids so I can run and get us all some Taco John's? Who will surprise me with a pop (when I drink it again)? Who will come over and complain about their day? Just kidding! Who will come into our 'quiet for a moment' house and get things loud and out of control?
Daryl and Amy, I (We) am really going to miss you guys. We know that you need a bigger home for your growing family, but it's so sad to think that you won't be walking over this summer to play in the pool with the kids or to have late night bonfires. Thanks for blessing our life so much with your unconditional love and friendship. Our door will continue to be open for you guys and you know that if you ever need anything we will always be here for you.
Steph-
ReplyDeleteWow I can't believe its time for us to move already. It went by so fast. Even though we will only be 5 miles away it is still hard to think that we won't be within walking distance. No more late nights of entering Tupperware into the computer until midnight or running over to shop in your frig. Just stopping by so Daryl can get the kids all wild and than say, "well gotta go." It is so amazing how God works in peoples lives. I know we were placed in this town home for a reason, and that reason is because of your family. You have blessed us over and over again. Because of your family we now have a relationship with God! How amazing is that!! You have opened our eyes to so many things and have showed us how important it is to let God lead the way. Even though we may not listen all the time. Thank you for all that you have done for us. We are so blessed to have you as friends and to be able to watch your kids grow up.
LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!
