We closed on our new house Friday, which was very exciting, but with that excitement comes a seemingly unendless amount of work. We are partially moved into our new home which is such a blessing. By partially, I mean we have mattresses to sleep on, the kitchen is in order, we have our bathroom things, and we have our dining room table. So we can function. We also have some of the toys and a whole lot of odds and ends. We have movers getting the rest of the furniture here on Wednesday and then on Saturday we are hiring some kids from our church youth group to help us with the rest. Today I took a trip over to the rental with the kids, had the four oldest practice the piano, and we loaded up the van. I am really thankful for my kids' ability to work hard right now. Peter, Kate, Maddie, and Teshome have worked like adults through this process! I am also very thankful for help from our parents and our friends with childcare, packing, cleaning, sorting, making food for our first day in the house so I didn't have to cook, and so much more! We are very blessed. Now it's time for lunch and a nap.
