Nat left,and Jenny's moving.....

So many people have asked what Natalie thought about the sweet tea. I think the picture says it all. There was no posing for this. It was right after her first sip!

What a sad day at my house! I was in lala land pretending that Nat would be here forever. I am in lala land no more.....I am very sad, but I will write more about that later.


My sister, Jenny, is moving away tomorrow. I have also been in lalaland about this...trying to pretend that it isn't happening, but it is TOMORROW. My heart just hurts. Plain and simple. I know how blessed I am.....a little over a week until I have AP, but my heart still hurts. Oh, how I will miss Jenny........ and I miss Nat already too. I feel like posting a bad word!!!!!

Do you think we could convince Natalie to move closer? ;)
I'm sorry that everyone seems to be leaving at the same time.

I'm sorry you're sad. =( I know it was hard for her to go. Trust me, I totally understand having to leave friends behind. I STIL miss all mine in Opelika! Call us if you need us. Tell Jenny hi for us, and I hope the week goes well for her and your Mom.

Sounds like a time for Hot Lips and Birthday Cake ice cream, to me. Come to my house Saturday, and I'll buy ;-)

I hope that having AP around will make up for a bunch of the sadness.

*laugh* Poor Nat, that face really does say it all. It is an acquired taste, for sure.

I am so sorry that your sister is moving away-I can totally relate! I hate being so far from mine.

And hey, only a short time- a BLINK, really until you have AP in your arms FOREVER!! How awesome is that!!

**hugs** to you!

Natalie said...

I'm at the airport...this sucks. I miss you SO much.

I'm praying for Jenny and Olivia...that things will go well for them. And you know that you and your family are all in my prayers at this time too.

Love you!

oH Lou, I am so sorry. It is so hard to say goodbye to friends and family. praise the Lord for technology. You and your sister and you and Natalie should get web cams (Do you have one? I vaguely remember you seeing AP on your web cam.) for your computer...then you can see each other (and your sweet babies) while you talk. (Not the same as being together in person I know but I am trying to be positive for you.) Focus on your hello and forever with AP...praying for you.

I love the picture of Natalie! I glad you had such a nice visit.

Alleen said...

Hey, go ahead and cuss!!! sorry you're sad.

Kerry said...

Not so much on the sweet tea huh?

I know how you feel. I hate it when anyone has to go home, and it must be killing you to have your sister move. I'd give anything to have my sister close.

Andrea said...

I'm sorry you're sad! I'm even more sorry that Nat didn't enjoy her fist experience w/ sweet tea! What will she drink in Heaven???

(If you post a bad word, I will too!)

Cameo said...

Rose said...

I am thinking about you - this is an emotional time - coming out of PGN does bring out a NEW set of emotions and so does having people you love leave:)

Lou,
I am sorry you are feeling so say;( I hate goodbyes too! But you leave in a week to see your sweet girl! I have a question about that. Are you staying at La Casa Grande? We are going to be there from the 7th to the 13th and I would love to meet you. Let me know your plans.
PS We just found out today that our little girl Elisabeth is out of PGN!!!!!!

Melissa said...

I'm with Cameo. Could you please explain this sweet tea to us Yanks. Is it iced tea with sugar or much more complicated than that?
