I've been putting this post off for awhile now. For the most part we've already said our goodbyes to our friends and church family here. Our bags are packed and we're literally just waiting for the day we can fly.
Every move is hard in its own way and I don't think the reality of this one has hit yet. We've been so blessed with an amazing community here.
We had friends from past assignments who graciously welcomed us in to their home and lives when we first came. We found the best church and quickly formed friendships that will span the test of time and space. We were ushered into the Army community at Josh's work like we had always been there.
It's hard to leave these people and to really put into words the impact they've had on our lives. We've celebrated births, survived deployments and just lived the everyday life together. They have made our time here in North Carolina unforgettable.
In this military life we call normal it's inevitable that someone is always moving on. It's the nature of the beast. But no one ever says goodbye for good. See you later is the catch phrase heard at farewells and going away lunches.
So, "see you later!" North Carolina and all the amazing people you brought into our lives. We pray that down the road we all run into each other again!
