*** Blah ***

So our good friends down here moved 6 days ago... and it's sad. I miss them! Eli is old enough to understand they are gone... and he has talked about the girls all week at times and it just breaks my heart. Has me in such a down mood b/c I feel so bad :[

They moved to Pittsburgh PA b/c Tiff's hubby Mike accepted a promotion with Cat there. It was so sad to see them go... we are all 4 very close with their family. What kills me even more is I met her not even 2 years ago and feel like I have known her my whole life... she is a wonderful friend beyond words to me... and we aren't ever going to see them much anymore.

I guess I don't understand... why did we meet such a great family and then they move away and we won't see them much ever again!?!? It makes me even more thankful that we get to see our families and friends and are able to plan a trip with our wonderful amazing bestest friends the Malones every year too for a long weekend -- and when we see families and friends it is pretty often for being as far away as we are and so nice too. It's so awesome and our visiting time is even more special every single time!!! But for Mike, Tiff, and their beautiful girls Haylee, Carli, and Rylie... it makes me so sad. I am hoping we can see each other sometime. I try to stay positive... esp since we have skype! Technology is so wonderful! I am learning that everything is going to be ok. The other night Zacary got pink eye and I called Tiff like she was just across town like always and it felt the exact same as it was when they were in Newnan!!! I loved that! Eli has never had pink eye, and Zacary has it and I have never experienced it... so called Tiff to see if her girls ever had it. I took Zacary to urgent care and sure enough.... he had it unfourtantely :[ I feel so bad -- but he has been such a trooper!!! Dr Eli and Mommy's snuggles have helped him out tons too of course!

We miss you so much our sweet friends... we realize even more how wonderful you always are to us! You find out who your friends are in life... that is for sure!!! Things in life happen for a reason -- and are meant to be the way they happen! I trust we will always stay in touch and be good friends... I always will! It's just so hard to explain to Eli and it breaks my heart so much!!! Poor baby boy!

Saw this quote the day they left -- true friends are never apart -- maybe in distance -- but not in the heart!!! So true and couldn't say it better myself!

WE LOVE YOU PHENNEGERS!!! I hope we can see you guys at times still! Skype will be great... and is def better than nothing at all! I guess my whole thing is I have to know when I am seeing my families and friends again and it makes it soooo much easier for me!!! Thankful my families and friends and us are able to work out times to see each other... and hope we can do this with them too! Staying positive! There could be much worse things to happen in life... so I shouldn't be down... but we love them so!!!
