Breathe
I was reminded today of this haiku I wrote for Sebastien when I noticed that he hadn't posted in a while. I think it's fitting for me at this time as well.
sometimes it is good
to step away and breathe a bit
lest we lose our breath

Sebastien is a wise one. It's all good. Your life is very busy now and we're not going anywhere. Now have fun moving/unpacking.
Mias oiu mon ami. C'est vrai. And you...getting very exciting! Only days now...
Yep, just days, in the teens now, away. (gulp) I will be hitting you up for motherly advice very soon.
You're gonna be great!
K, here's a tip for starters: when moving with children, label one box for each child. one LARGE box for each. don't fold any laundry for the two weeks prior to the move date. require children to fetch clothes from piles each day (not that this is a far cry from the daily norm). On night before move, shove each kids' unfolded clean laundry into respective boxes. tape shut and lable accordingly. after move when kids need clothes, direct them to the box with their name labeled, "clean clothes".
with that advice, i know you'll be coming back.
It's definitely good, Good for Me!! It takes a lot of time and energy to get settled into a new home. And you need your time to acclimate and....well, breathe!!
Amen!
Breathe in breathe out...be happy...even shout...with joy...with tears...with weariness...its moving time...to your very own house!
Best Wishes!!!
Yes, I'm a big fan of breathing too!
Nice 'ku!
I will be coming back, with or without the sage advice. How's the settling going?
Always a pleasure to stop by here! :)
Hoping you are getting settled in ; knowing of course that really takes a life time :)
Nice haiku, I'm sure Sebastien liked it too, even if he is taking a break from blogging !
Beautiful!
Growing pains are called that for a reason...there is always an element of pain with change, whether it be mental, physical, emotional...you'll not only survive...you will thrive!

Sorry to leave this in a comment...I didn't see another way to contact you.
I stumbled across your site while searching for blogs that had a similar concept to my site I am developing. You had a post that was "100 things about me". I was wondering if you would like to submit it to my site. The site is http://just100things.com. It is just up and coming and would really enjoy some participation!
My name is Kevin by the way...hope to see you there!
Drop me a line sometime gfm...
Enjoy your time away!
cheers!
Katie
