Day before closing

Here we are, the day before I hand my house, my family's home of 11 years over to a couple that don't even have little kids to live in Jase's "cars" themed bedroom or Madi's pink yellow and green stripped room..that was a lot of work by the way. Or play in the play house that my husband and his Dad built, with lots of sweat and love! Here we are..approximately 16 hours before my house is no longer mine. the only house that my Zac can ever remember.. where he learned to ride bike, were he learned to throw a baseball, where my Mom, his aunties ,and Darren and I sent him off to his first day of kindergarten..1st grade..2nd grade..3rd grade..4th grade..5th grade..6th grade..7th grade..8th grade and then high school! The house that I brought my little girl home too, then my little boy. the house that my husband and his Dad built..every nail in this house..every inch my husband has personally touched. Will they appreciate the garden that my Mom and I put so much love into, will they know how much it meant to me? Will they sit on the swing on the porch and just listen to nature singing a tune personally written for them =) So many memories here. I know that everything in life is a stepping stone to the next phase, it's just hard for me to think of life somewhere other than here..this house, this land..my paradise. I AM ready for our next phase..it's just going to be hard saying good bye to this one.
