A week without Karlee


My Karlee girl moved down to Phoenix.  I know she is only 2 hours away but.....I have missed her so much!  The pictures below are what we took before Sara and I drove to Phoenix to move her and her stuff.



I love to see all three of them together!


Silly girls!


a tight squeeze, hard to let go...


Karlee in her new room.

Our home is not the same without her, it has changed the dynamics of it.  We all have been adjusting.  The first night I laid in bed waiting for her to walk in from work and say "I'm home".  Then the next night waiting for her to come home from hanging out with her friends.  During the day has been the toughest I think because sometimes she would come see me at work or we would meet for lunch.  She has been one that I have depended on helping get Sara to and from or when someone forgets something and needs it at school.  I have missed her moodiness too.  I know she will do well and be fine on her own.  She will go through little challenges but she will get through them.

Sara has enjoyed the idea of having of her own room and is okay during the day but when it came to the first few nights alone in a room that she once shared with Karlee she couldn't do it.  She slept with me for the first 2 nights and had a friend over the 3rd but now she is okay and has been fine to sleep in her big room all to herself.  Sara has missed her greatly too.

Kyle, well Kyle is quite but I know he has missed Karlee as well.  They have exchanged a few messages to show that he has missed her too.

Karlee has gone through the adjustment of having to cook her own food for dinner.  I tried to get her in the kitchen but she never wanted to.  Now she finds herself on Pinterest looking for quick, easy recipes to make for herself.  Its a little funny.........and I did try....oh well she will figure it out.

It almost feels like she went away on a trip and will be back soon, especially since we will see her this weekend.  We are meeting at my Uncle's and my mom too and we will be able to celebrate Karlee's 19th birthday!  After that there will be a long stretch of time that will go by before we will see each other again.....

But for now we are taking one day at a time......
