My mom left today to go back home. Knowing she can't run up on Amtrak in a few hours is tough and we were sad to see her go. The airport is 11 minutes from our house....12 minutes if you miss your turn like I did today. Pretty amazing. There are only four flights a day so you have to plan carefully.
I'm starting to think about school....I am not ready but none of the teachers, parents or kids I know are either.
We have some wonderful neighbors. Next door is a pastor and his family. His wife told my mom yesterday she really wanted us to come to her birthday dinner Friday night but knew we needed a babysitter and her 17-year old daughter had plans. Today she told me she wanted us there so badly she had asked her daughter if she wouldn't be willing to change her plans for her birthday. And her daughter responded: "Of course I will Mom." We are feeling really blessed to have such a wonderful family next door.
Now we need to buckle down and get into a routine. I still have some unpacking to do.
Today we set up a local bank account. Next up...
