See You Later

For the past few days I have been staying at my mom's house. No matter how crazy she drives me nothing gives me comfort quite like being close to her. At one point we even lived next door to each other. Throughout my second pregnancy she was always with me. Then we decided to move away and as the day to turn over our apartment keys nearned I began to keep my distance. I kept my distance because I thought I was doing myself good by not getting too close that way when the time to leave arrived saying good bye would be easier. 

I managed to not come around too often until about a week ago when all the feelings from the realization that I was 9 days away from leaving rolled around. I missed my family and I was tired of where we were staying. As I gave things deeper thought I realized spending a few days with my family was only fair. After all, they deserve to be around my boys too, and even if I wanted to get away from everyone we would still miss everyone.

The day to leave draws near and my mom keeps commenting that she doesn't want to say good bye. She told me I need to leave while shes not here. I am respecting those wishes, but as we embark on this journey I want everyone to know that I don't want good byes. I want see you laters. We have chosen to do this for the better of our family.

We aspire greater things and more out i life that are just not possible here where we are. We feel stuck. We want change and in order to achieve what we aspire risks had to be taken. We are ready to face the challenges and the victories that will come with our adventure. So, as the day draws near...see you later we are out of here!
