To Jesup we will go!

So this weekend we took a super quick trip to Jesup!  Delivering some furniture to OUR new apartment!  I have been corrected by my sweet hubby!  I say "We are moving Daddy to THE new apartment."  He worries it is sending the wrong message to the boys, i.e. "Daddy's leaving!"  Rather than the "We are ALL moving to Jesup for an exciting new FAMILY adventure!" message.  

So we get to Jesup and the boys are taking it all it!  One of the boys chimes in "Jesup is LOTS nicer that Clarkesville."  I think it was Joel with his overflowing optimism!  Gotta love that sweet smile and positive attitude.  Then Jensen says "I like Jesup but I don't want to leave Georgia."  Well little man you are in luck.  It was a really long car ride surely after 5 hours we aren't in Georgia anymore???????  Still in GA Jensen!  So now I have 2 happy boys!  Driving through town after we unloaded the trailer Jackson had finally had enough time to take it in (he is my thinker, can't rush to judgement).  He is ready to comment!  "Jesup isn't as big as Clarkesville (wrong) and I am not sure if it is as nice. (no comment)"  Off to dinner, where Jackson was given his own personal pitcher of sweet tea.  "Momma, I like Jesup!"  Imagine that!  All it takes is a pitcher of sweet tea, he really is a Georgia boy!

Join the Crowd!

So Five Minute Friday....guess I am in!  So what to write about for 5 minutes?????  My tendency to plan and my inability to do so at this point in my life?  My boys?  My looming single mom status (even if it is only for a few months)?  Yes let's blog about that!  STRESS!!!!!   As many of you know we are moving, Jason leaves in a couple of weeks and I will follow with our boys when school is out.  When thinking about all the things that I will have to do BY MYSELF I get stressed!  Yes we all talk about how we do it all without complaint  and then our husbands come in and dust the furniture and want a medal BUT it is all too different when no one is dusting!  When no one is taking the recycling off, when no one is there to help take 3 boys to 3 different places!   When no one is calling to see if you need anything from the store.  I think about that and I stress!  Then out of nowhere the stress leaves for a moment when I remember how much I will miss him!
