Today I cried

Today I cried. And not the graceful cry where a tear rolls down your cheek and you wipe it away while containing a smile. No, it was the ugly cry. Today was our last day at our ward. I was dreading going to church today only because I hate goodbyes. But we went anyways and I was so impressed with myself that it stayed so upbeat. I even had the nerve to look at the clock at about fifteen minutes to the end and congratulate myself for being such a big girl and not crying or even coming close to crying even once. Then the closing song hit. Sitting next to one of my dearest friends and next door neighbor, I had a little flash back of six plus years earlier. Her and I sat next to each other in the same Relief Society room because we were the only familiar face to each other in a room of strangers. Flashing forward, there we sit again, but this time we are holding hands and bawling like babies.

I have a feeling this will be my first post of many as we say goodbye to Sunshine Drive.
