Some families move in and become a part of your family. Then, sometimes, they move back away. Taking a piece of your heart with them. My girls have been blessed to have amazing friends in the Hill girls. Best friends. That one friend of a lifetime. And now we're all a little lost without them. I personally feel like I've been in a divorce and my husband got custody of my two (best behaved) kids. Hills, we love and miss you...
The final hug goodbye. I was bawling like a baby. They handled it better than I did. (I'm crying now. How can they be gone?)
And my triplets are back down to twins...

My heart aches for your family even though I know you are all resilient and will be okay. I remember well how hard it was for me as a young teenager when my very best friend, Karlene McMurray, moved away. No one could replace her even though I had other good friends over the years. She will always have a special place in my heart. And so it will be with your family. That is a special gift all in itself. And, of course, the long-distance visits are awesome!
ReplyDeleteHow embarrassing I just saw this though you sent it over a year ago. We love your family and our adventure in WA will always hold a special place in our hearts because of the dear friends we gained while there.
