I didn’t really know what to expect from our last few nights before the move. I wasn’t sure if I’d be overly emotional or stressed, or what I'd be feeling. Although I didn’t find myself crying, I did find myself pondering over the sentiment of little things like, this is the last time I will tuck my kids in to this bed, this is the last time I will bathe them in this tub.
