Bittersweet Countdown

I've thought over and over about how I will capture into words what I am feeling as we countdown our departure for Colorado. There are no words. The emotions that have tangled with my heart this past month are indescribable.

Three weeks ago we were dealt a painful blow and weren't able to say goodbye to someone we loved very much. It makes our everyday "good byes" even harder.

Mark flew to Tennessee this past week to meet with the movers and pack up our stuff. He then flew to St. George yesterday to meet up with us and it's off to Colorado on Monday.

I am so happy to begin our journey to Colorado and to be together as a family again. But wow, is it going to be tough to say goodbye to my Mom and Dad and the place the boys and I have called home for the past 9 months!

I am forever grateful for the time we have spent and the memories we have created in St. George.
I will hold these memories close to my heart always and forever.

Thank-you Mom and Dad for giving us a home and putting up with all of our antics. Cooper, Cruz and I (and even Targhee and Kokanee) are going to miss you to the moon and back! And then some.........

Now I'm off to bed so I can wake up and cherish our last day before we leave like it is just another day. Doing our everyday things and relishing in the happy little routine we have created.
It really will be the little things that I'm going to miss the most.
