For several weeks now, the children have been peppering me with questions... "Are we taking our beds when we move?", "Are we taking our food?", "Are we taking Henry?"
Finally, the day has nearly arrived and the children will see that much to their surprise, and our home's new owners' relief, the baby doesn't actually stay behind, but will, in fact, come with our family to the new house.
So, goodbye for a week or so. I'll hurry back when my DSL has finished the long and dreary crawl across town. (Why does it take so long to reconnect?)
