We are finally moving back into our home in Haslet.
It is definitely bitter sweet.
Tonight, as I lie here crying... Realizing that last night was our last night ever to sleep there--
It feels more bitter than sweet.
I always use to tell Lance that I missed apartment because it felt more "homey"...
The farm house had that same feel.
Maddox doesn't remember our old house...
so to him, we are leaving his home.
We are leaving my parents...
Who's home is just through the field.
We are leaving the land that has give Maddox hours and hours of play....
And the house we brought Beckham home to.
We are leaving a simpler life...
Fresh air...
Starry skies...
Cows...
The ponds...
The front porch swing...
People waving when you pass eachother on the road...
Dinner at moms when I have nothing to cook...
Deer, coyotes, fox (or is it foxes?!)...
Friendly faces and family friends everywhere we go.
Home.
I know we were only here 11 months--
And there were things about this house I hated...
But I miss it already,
And I will count the days we can get back.
I pray the housing market picks up and we can sell and build by the time Maddox starts kindergarten.
It may be a stretch (with a 3 year time frame)
But that is our goal.
I wanted to post a few pictures from the farm house...
Some of the quirky things I will miss...
But I'm on my phone and I can't figure it out?!
Maybe in another post...
For now I will just sap into Lance's shoulder....
And hopefully pass out--
We have a full day tomorrow, packing up and moving over the rest of my things!
Bring on the 800 degree heat!!
Good luck on the move. I know you are so sad about leaving that cute farmhouse. Keep your chin up!!!! Stay safe in this hot weather and drink plenty of water. I got so dehydrated a couple of weeks ago, I was close to going to the ER. It was bad.
ReplyDeleteChange is so hard....but you always seem to have such a positive outlook so I know you will make the most of it. Good luck with your move and just remember, home is where your family is.
