This will be my life everyday for the next several weeks... heading off to Jason's mom's townhouse almost everyday to help her finish moving out and into her new house, then getting it ready for us to move into...
We have sooo much work to do, but we have a plan on how to get it done. Add to this the fact that we have our own house to pack up, and lots of other family business on the table that needs to be attended to, well, you can imagine. We are stretched SUPER thin right now, so every moment of levity that we get, every opportunity to laugh, seems heaven sent. The flip side is every additional stressor seems to break me open at the seams. Like today when I tried to fire my realtor, and got a not-so-nice call from her. I think I was shaking for about two hours after that call. Thankfully our friend Cara is coming in to save the day and hopefully get us an offer before December 6th when our house is supposed to be auctioned off.
But, let's focus on the positive. Last night before we left to come home from the condo (where we'll be living in a couple months), Shiloh found a sheet of bubble wrap and decided to jump on it to pop the bubbles. Little Noah, delirious from no nap, started belly laughing so hard, we all just beamed with joy and love and happiness listening to Shiloh popping the bubble wrap and laughing, and Noah's big laughs. You can't really hear Noah laugh over our loud voices. But we all stopped to look at each other to take in what was a truly sweet moment after a very stressful day. I caught the tail end of it with my crappy camera on my phone. I hope you smile as much as we did (so much our faces hurt).
