westward

ever since i can remember i've always had the itch to live some where different. try some place new. lucky for me i married someone with the exact same itch. and while we thought something like this would happen sooner, we know, with certainty that there were greater forces at work writing our story. dictating our time line. don't get me wrong. we railed, we whined, we wondered how to make it work for years. little did we know, that the whole time tiny cogs were clicking into place. making connections and ties that would prove invaluable. so that when the perfect time came, we would slap our foreheads in wonder. smile like idiots and say of course. of course that's how things would work out. so with many prayers of thanks. many tears of goodbye, many friends here and there wishing us well. huffmans move westward. southern california, here we come!

ps. little blue house, i will miss you. you were good to us. the best first home anyone could ask for. i take back all the mean things i said about you. and i hope someone who will love you like we do makes their home with you. who could resist that porch? who??
