Going Away

So my baby sister is moving to Miami. I'm a little sad, but a selfish sad. She is 22 and a semester away from graduating. It is just hard to think that she won't be a short drive away. She is also the first of any of my siblings to leave the state for an extended period of time. And she is the youngest. My family is extremely close, to the tune that we all live within 10 minutes of the next with 30 minutes being the furthest.

We are all going to miss her, but no one as much as my mother. She will be without a child living home for the first time in 38 years. She also is a worrywart. And I can sympathize. In just 4 short years my littlesoldier boy will be off to college. We are hoping he stays in the area but know that might not be the case.  I am going to try to not think about it and enjoy the next 4 years regardless if they may be the tough teen ones.

Here's to hoping my sister has a safe and fun experience in South Beach. We will be counting down the days till the Homecoming Party!

In other news, babygirl now has the hand/mouth coordination down and she also has been climbing to stand. It may not be long until she walks. Oh how quickly she is growing.
