Moving Day

October 24, 2025 — 9:07pm

Dear Reese,

It’s moving day—our first of two this year. I drive you to school and then spend the day with the movers, getting our condo emptied with MorMor’s help. By the end of the day, mostly everything is at the barn, and you and me are tucked into bed at the cottage. We have the weekend to get the odds and ends and clean the place for the new owners.

After school, we were able to see our future home again, where a lot of people have been working hard. The siding is almost done, and they started putting the floors in today. I’m really happy with them. Plus, some of the lights are wired so we could see everything a little better.

7 more weeks and hopefully we’ll call this place our official home. But the cottage is a wonderful place to be in the meantime. Even if it means the cats need to adjust to two moves this year. Arthur hides most of the day and then breaks into your room when I’m trying to sneak out after your lullaby and hides under your crib. It takes you a little longer to get to sleep after fishing him out.

Love,

Mama
