After

 

I am quickly approaching an after moment.  A defining moment.
In 7 weeks, I will no longer be a resident of the state where I was born and raised.  I will no longer be a resident of the town where I have spent my whole life.
In 7 weeks, my boys and I will be joining my husband on an adventure.
My husband accepted a job a few weeks ago in Missouri.  He starts in 10 days.
The boys and I have things to finish up.  The Cub Scout year, complete with final awards.  AWANA and BSF.  The child birth class I am teaching.  They all wrap up between now and Memorial Day weekend.  Then, we are off.
I haven't thought much about after.  After we move.  After we find a new home.  After we find a new church family.  After I learn how to go about registering to home school, vote, and get a new driver's license.  Those things will come.
Today, I am looking at the, after we list our house.  It goes on the market Monday.
And, I'm living in the today.  Enjoying the boys who will not be 7, 6, and 4 forever.  My husband who willing be missing from our daily lives for a few weeks starting in 9, to short, days.
So, I'm off to live in the now...
