Yesterday, we did have to leave and had very little time. And even in the midst of it, it didn’t seem real. I was super proud of all of us and how we all jumped in to get out the door in a calm and orderly fashion.
The boys each grabbed a couple things - their Star Wars alarm clocks and computers; for T-man his baby blanket, a pocket knife from his granddad and a nerf gun (“so he could remember them all”). D-man grabbed his 2022 Guinness Book of World Records and cards from those close to him.
After grabbing our photos and memory boxes for the boys, I had a backpack and grabbed some sentimental Christmas ornaments in the hopes of preserving some of our holiday tradition. And I grabbed a couple pieces of special jewelry.
Unlike many of our neighbors and close friends, we are relieved and fortunate that we have our home and things to go home to. There are so many emotions right now and that is ok. We are all allowed to feel conflicting emotions.
