Three weeks to go... No sad goodbyes please

Three weeks today we will be flying to New York! Now all the other recent big events are over, like Ethan's birthday and Fi's wedding there are no more distractions and its all about the move (well and Dad's 60th!). Our possessions going by sea are crossing the Atlantic, packers arrive on Wednesday for stuff that's going via air freight and Bruno is booked in for his first class flight.

So basically there's no hiding from it any longer, suddenly the move is very real. I'm feeling mixed emotions, excitement for our adventure but obviously anxious about our new life for the next two years and sadness at saying goodbye to family and friends. Old friends who I've known forever and new friends who have become close as we've gone through the first year of motherhood together.

So I have a request, help me/us through these goodbyes or as I would prefer to look on them au revoirs. Lets not look at it as two years apart, but several months until we see each other again. Flights are booked home for Christmas and April and in between there's this blog, email, telephone, FaceTime  and something I've heard of called Facebook? Not sure what that's all about but sure I can get up to speed pretty quick!

So pep talk over! No more tears allowed, having cried during the 'wave goodbye' song of our last Baby Sensory class I'm not allowing any more!
