Moving Day

We moved Tim to his new home today. Moving him in and setting him up was easy. Saying good-bye was hard...similar to saying good-bye to Cupcake at the end of a visit trip.

We know that everything has changed. Everything.

It's impossible to verbalize my thoughts tonight, so I'll let the pictures do the talking for now.


Arranging the cubes....
Setting up the laptop...

New home....
Lunch...my engineer built a ziggurat out of onion rings...
Wal-Mart was giving out free purple cupcakes. Cupcake had one. Can you tell?
Ready to go...
Hugs....and tears....

I am so excited for all that the next four years hold for our son. I pray Tim makes good, godly, lifelong friends this year. And that God would protect him and hold him when we can't be there.

God bless you, my son.

Blessings to you,
Mamita

Caught your blog for the first today. Wondering how DAY ONE w/ your eldest away at school has gone?

I remember well the empty feelings....but they are sooned eased and life continues. Everyday is new and different experiences change our perspectives. You will enjoy even more, the process of watching your son mature and grow into a man! I said a prayer for you. (from mom to mom) :)

Wow--The day has come and gone and I know God has helped you all to adjust! If change is inevitable why does it always take us by such surprise?! Your blessings will multiply as you see God work in Tim's life to make him the man of God you've prayed him to be! This will also give you more time to lavash love on your kiddos who are within arms reach :) Praying :)

You and his Daddy raise him up so well and it will guide him thru this new path. I had seen , well basically in that sense, how you molded him on who he is now, it is his time now to influence others and share the values you instill on him.Relax, you've done a great job... It is time for the eagle to soar and fly high....
