Well, they are gone...

Today was the dreaded day, the day my parents moved to California. How did this happen? My Dad actually left a few weeks ago and my mom today. My life feels really weird right now, like I'm in a nightmare but I can't wake up. Too many changes all at once! Both of my sisters moved to St. George this year and now my Mom and Dad. I have cried off and on for the last several weeks since my Dad announced their big move. They went because of his new golf club business he started with a few of my brothers. It will be good for them but horrible for us left here. I think it will really hit home on Sunday's when they're not there for family dinner and, birthday parties and, oh wait, I need this or that and my mom ALWAYS had it and, we're bored, let's go hang out at Mom and Dad's and, all summer long swimming in the pool hanging out on the deck with them and, and, and. The list could go on forever. What an adjustment this will be but I will try to be strong and have faith that there is a plan in all of this??? I love them both so much and am so thankful for all they do for me and my little family. I can't imagine life without them and hope the few trips a year to the beach will help the heartache. My poor kids...cousins and Grandparents moving so far away. That is the worst part, my kids and the close relationships they will miss out on now. Little Ava doesn't have a clue what has happened with "Pawma and Pawmpa." Tears will flow freely around here often as we adjust to this new life...
