...Last Things...

...wanna know what's the very last thing I did before I locked the parsonage and left the keys at the church...

...I took a picture of the wall where we marked Scout's growth through the years that we lived here...

...Oh my...how he's grown...

    There are some things that will always bring a lump to the throat - that will always be hard to leave behind.

    You made me cry. The last thing I did when we left our first parsonage was to run back in after the kids were buckled into the car. I stood in the living room looking around, "seeing" all the years of laughter and growing and family, and just bawled like a baby. Then, I mopped up my face and headed on to the next chapter of our lives.

    I'm anxious to read the next chapter of your's.

    Aw, wow! I feel bad that I never did this with my kids - we always marked our height on my grandmother's door. We just never thought we would live in this house very long, and yet here we are, still here. I think it's time to start marking the doorway :)
