We are T minus 6 weeks now until the big move and time is literally flying by and I knew it would. It's that time in the move where I start getting super sentimental and basically tearing up at the drop of a hat. It's not pretty.
Over the last couple of weeks we were able to spend some time with family before we go. This isn't normally in our goodbye plans since we've always been stateside, but since we're moving 8000 miles away it's important to us to spend time with them because it could be up to 2 years before we see some or most of them.
I've said it before and I will say it forever that my girls are so incredibly lucky to have not just one set of amazing grandparents, but 2 sets of amazing grandparents and family. We couldn't ask for anything more, especially when I hear friends discuss not so stellar relationships with their parents/grandparents.
I know that they will treasure any time they can spend with them. We don't see them often, even when we're in the same country, but they soak up all the time they can when they do see them.
Of course it doesn't help when Maya, at 9.5, realizes the gravity of our move and gets teary and weepy before we have even pulled out of the driveway. She's always been the sentimental one, but even more so now, which means I get even more weepy and sentimental leaving too.
We are grateful for them. Extremely grateful for good family who loves us unconditionally. We will cherish these visits before our move and will be forever thankful for Skype starting in June!
