On to the next Chapter...


Before you begin a new chapter you have to come to a close on the previous one, and that is what we are doing. The time has come to say good bye to our condo. Part of me is really happy to leave - the neighbor upstairs is beyond rude :0.  Packing has been a blast - not really lol! It's been nice to go through things, organize and purge what we no longer need. It's amazing how much stuff you can accumulate! 

Now, in our last few days it is time to start packing Landon's nursery. It's extremely bittersweet. It brings me back to the feelings I had when I was putting it together. I don't think I have ever done anything in my life with so much love and thought. I wanted a room that was catered specifically to Landon and wanted it to reflect the people he came from. As I get ready to take down the hot air balloon mobile, the golf club canvases and the map of the United States I think about the fun/dynamic/and at times impulsive connection between two people. Also the love and excitement... and stories that go with those pieces and the background of pre LB. 

I remember having a hard time leaving the hospital with him - it was where he was brought into the world and I held it very sentimental. I know it won't be easy packing up the last of Landon's things, but I know it's just the end of this chapter. And for better and greater chapters to come, we must close this one. 

I am blessed with one of the happiest, most inquisitive and intelligent babies I've ever met and at the end of the day, all that matters is he's happy and healthy. Everything else will fall into place - what is meant to be, will be! I can't wait for the next chapter in our lives and am excited to see what the future holds!
