How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard.”

This is the week we pack up and begin the process of letting go. Everyone keeps saying that the anticipation is worse than the actual goodbye. I keep thinking that like a band-aid, I just wish we could rip it off quickly so the pain won’t linger. Sadly, the process of packing, editing, shipping and goodbyes is a slow peeling off and not the quick rip I long for.

Each day the pain simply gets worse as the inevitable approaches. He is ready, I am ready and yet my heart breaks as part of me is simply flying away. I think I’m going to need a really big band-aid for this one.
