Good-bye's SUCK

 That's right, Mommy said "SUCK" because this whole week SUCKS.  While we are very excited for our Greenville adventure (we really are!) there is nothing fun about saying good-bye to the friends we've grown to love over the past four years.  Mommy is sick and damn tired of good-bye's.  Mommy promises us we will never have to go through this again.  She's had a lifetime of good-bye's and they don't get any easier - in fact, they've never felt harder.  Probably because we've known her Mommy Friends and their little ones almost their whole lives.  It's hard, and it sucks.
 Today we said good-bye to Mr Aaron and Ms Jill and their beautiful babes Josie and Bailey.  Did Mommy ever tell you how they met Mr Aaron and Ms Jill?  At Dave Ramsey's Total Money Makeover Class!  Mommy knew she and Jill would be GOOD friends because Jill was pretty vocal about how she does everything "wrong" according to Dave Ramsey standards whereas Mommy was silently concurring with her every point.  That, and she's just hilarious and super fun to be around.  What more could you want in a friend?  Funny and fun!  Caring, attentive, helpful - a good, good friend and her little girls are both EXACTLY a year younger than me and Anna respectively!



Mama's a little puffy-eyed in this picture, but it's still a good picture.  You see that beautiful necklace Mommy is wearing?  A gift from Ms Jill.  She knows Mommy so well! :)
We will miss you so much Josie, Bailey, Mr Aaron and Ms Jill!  But we know we will still be friends and we will still get to watch those beautiful girls grow.  It will just be from a little further away.
Thanks for your friendship.

Love,
Lilly, Anna and Jack
