A Sincere Thank You

I just wanted to say thank you for the outpouring of friendship, offers to help, and sympathies. It has moved me to tears today (not that that is hard to do right now :) ). I keep telling myself that this is really not that big of a deal, because it's just a move, and no one's dead, and we'll be okay eventually when we're settled in somewhere for at least a year or so, but it's nice to have validation from sympathetic blogging friends/moms who understand the stress load from relocating in such a short time with small kids and a husband who is necessarily consumed with his career right now. Anyway, thank you, thank you, and thank you again. As soon as we find a place to go on Saturday, we will eventually need help moving some of our heavy furniture around, and Ben and I feel that we expended our Elder's Qourum quota when they helped us move in three weeks ago. So, if there are able and willing volunteers who would be around on a Saturday morning at some point in the near future, we could sure use your help, and would appreciate it very, very, very, very much! Thanks again!

If you guys end up needing help with the move just leave a comment on our blog and I can send Trent out. And I am also VERY willing to watch your kids sometime if you need to get some things done. Just let us know!

I REALLY wish I was there!! Your post made me cry, just reading it.
I am feeling bad for myself because I have had sinusitis for 5 weeks and it just isn't going away. Your problems are much bigger and it makes realize how blessed I am. You have it so much harder and I really am sorry. My motto too is it will all work out and it does and your attitude shows you know it soon will be a happy ending.
