Good evening all,
It's 10:15 pm and I feel as though my night has only begun. We are moving this Saturday to the Moss Park area. Needless to say, this week has been full of packing, cleaning, packing, cleaning, packing, packing, packing...
I've learned that with a toddler in tow you must reserve a good full four months to pack! I've been slowly packing here and there for the past couple of months. But, this week is when I really started filling all the boxes. Did you know I can pack more in one hour when Eli is napping than I can in a WHOLE day when he isn't asleep??!! Yep, it's true! The little man likes to "help" me pack. Which consists of throwing anything and everything into the box I am filling. Which means I spend most of my time undoing what he has done. He also seems to find the items in the box much more interesting when they are IN THE BOX, opposed to when they were out of the box with in his reach. Oh well! As my dad put it, at least he is a hard worker! He's so fun to have around. I love how curious he is!
Yesterday morning I was going about my business when I received a text message from my husband exclaiming "Happy Anniversary, Baby!" Ummm, ooops! I completely forgot it was our three year anniversary. I quickly wrote him back saying I was so sorry I had forgotten and that I did not do anything for our anniversary. But then he wrote me to say he only remembered because his mom had text him congratulating us on our anniversary! I'm horrible at remembering important dates. This year I'll blame it on being busy with moving :) Anyways, Happy Anniversary, baby! A day late. Thank you for being wonderful. Thank you for being funny, supportive, leading, encouraging, and hard working. Thank you most of all for the loving the Lord. I love you.
Off to pack some more!

I detest packing to move. LOATHE it actually. I remember when we were packing to go to Mississippi and my friend, Kim, came over, looked at me, saw panicked look, and said, "Alright, here's what we're going to do..." And then she proceeded to lead me from room to room, telling me to write things down, and giving me assignments of what to do next. I was so relieved. I need someone to boss me a bit when I'm packing. Otherwise, I'm too ADD. The kids have nothing to do with it. Well, maybe Felix a little. Can't wait to see your new place!
Congratulations on your anniversary! Yours is right before mine...ours is on December 10th :) December is a good wedding month, isn't it? :)
