This last weekend we really hit it with the packing. I was a little bit apprehensive (nice alternative word for worry, eh?) how the kids would handle the house being torn apart. They totally amazed me by jumping right in and helping out clearing out cupboards and organizing the boxes. I have amazing kids. That's all there is to it!
We've been getting things ready to ship. Kids homeschool stuff. Motorcycle helmet. Face soap (can't live without it). A few fun things for the house. Art supplies. Swim stuff. Three cheers for living somewhere sunny! A pack of Mac and Cheese from Costco so Kellan can survive the year.
When we move to the Philippines we will be moving into the house of the family that we will be replacing. SO nice not to have to find a place or a vehicle. Kind of weird to think about living in someone else's house with someone else's stuff for a year. At the same time I think it will be nice to have a year without having to think about all of our stuff. Buying stuff, getting rid of stuff, kids growing out of stuff, organizing stuff, decorating stuff. Stuff, stuff, stuff.
Right now our house has stuff all over. Stuff that is going to Goodwill. Stuff that needs to be packed. Stuff that is going to go in suitcases. It's CRAZY here!
