Part two of our move took place on Saturday, February 21. The movers were at our home a bit before 9 and proceeded to take beds apart and clear the living room of all of the dusty stuff that they brought up the day before from the basement. Matthias and I had some quiet moments in the rocking chair surrounded by boxes and dirt. It was actually peaceful by the wood stove if I closed my eyes during his feeding! Wonderful friends showed up to clean my home and my bathrooms and to take away lots of garbage - thank you everyone!!! Random stuff went into random boxes as I hurried to finish the last of the packing. Our home and garage were empty by around 2 in the afternoon. All of our stuff drove down the driveway not to be seen again by us until March 2...weird. That Saturday night we slept like logs at our friends' home after a delicious meal.
The next day was Sunday. A wonderful church service followed by a pie reception for our family took place that evening. Little did we know it but the congregation was given the opportunity to speak about our family. Many folks said very kind things and we were humbled. It is an honor to be a part of such a great group of people. We were also given a gift of a Bible verse to hang in our new home. "As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." We shed many tears that night. Thank you Ballston Lake Baptist Church for your love and support for our family! You all are missed!!!
Stay tuned for our next entry...to be continued...
