Adventure Girls and Ferd

Two weeks from now we will be on the plane embarking on this new grand adventure. There still feels like so much to do but we are getting there. Slowly.  The next two weeks are filled with packing, moving, cleaning, selling, and partying. B. turns 8! on Wednesday. Where has my little baby gone? She is an amazing kid with a big heart, a great sense of humor, and an inquisitive mind.  I have so much to say about this whole moving and relocating process but I can't find the words.  Instead here is a picture of our beautiful rhodies and my silly girl. 

Things are moving along and falling into place. For the most part.  We've accepted an offer on the house.  The van has been sold.  T. signed a lease for a townhouse in Germany.  Plane tickets have been purchased.  To say it has been extremely stressful would be an understatement. Most conversations with T. involve us trading lists of stressors and hopes for some peace when we are all reunited.  Outstanding stressors include: -Closing on the house -Getting house packed and shipped (and the movers told us it could take to two months to get our HHG!) -B. getting an admission offer at her potential school -Getting through the airport with luggage, two cats, a dog, and a heavy heart.  Here is a beautiful water color done by my friend and artist Cathy Hartung. It will be a cherished reminder of our happy home.
