Last and First

This is the last photo that will ever be taken of my children on this porch step (actually the first and last for Lincoln). It saddens me a bit, and if my life weren't so busy right now, I might even shed a tear or two. Yesterday for the first time, I also drove all three kids to Missouri by myself. It went well with only one minor mishap. I've made that drive a million times, but somehow I managed to get on the wrong highway for about 45 minutes. I almost cried, but managed to pull myself together, get back on track and have a smooth rest of the trip. Thankfully, the girls were great, and Lincoln didn't wake up once, not even with the extra detour. He apparently likes his carseat. I also managed to drive back today without a peep from the little guy. Anyway, this weekend will be busy with packing, moving and closing. When the girls return from their Fall Break Fun at the Fredendall's, they will be coming home to a brand new house. I'm a little jealous that their fall break will be full of fun and games, and mine will be full of working and moving, but I guess that's how it has to be:) I can't wait to get moved and settled!
