Without any fanfare, we realized that last night was the last one we'd spend in our old house. After ten years, it ends... not with a bang but a whimper.
At the new house, the guest room has been set up - and put together marvelously by Ba-Ba and Nana. They had been using it to sleep in when spending time here, and as they are gone back to Florida for a bit, Mommy and Daddy decided to take advantage the set-up by moving everything over to spend the night here.
So today was basically spent packing for our big adventure. We packed like we were going on a vacation, suitcases and toiletries set and ready to go. Only this time, everything would be staying where it was put.
We brought the pack-and-play for Madison to sleep in. She dashed to her room when it was night time. She loves it here. We kept our nightly rituals with her - prayers, milk, music, and she fell asleep pretty quickly.
Mommy and Daddy did too! It was a lot of work today, but we slept well in the new house. It is so peaceful here. Looking from upstairs out the windows is a panorama of fall outside.
This is a happy place.
