We are leaving. Tomorrow the packers will come and pack our things and the movers will put them on the truck and take them away. The house will be empty and another chapter in our lives will be over. I am sad. Part of me is very excited about moving back to the mainland and being closer to family, getting away from the bugs and having a Target, but tonight I am only thinking about what we will be missing. As we walked in our summer clothes today, I looked up at the blue sky, felt the warm sun and took in the beautiful green palm trees. I said good-bye to my next door neighbor and packed winter clothes for the children. We have been so blessed to be stationed here in paradise. Wearing flip flops, going outside whenever we want and enjoying good health have been such gifts. There is a playground in our backyard and wonderful Christian neighbors next door, we have a wonderful church and good friends. Now we have to start over...settle into a new house, find our way around a new town, church hunt, build new relationships and wear winter coats. Please pray for us as we make this transition.
Good-bye to paradise.
