We have bought a house. Now comes the wonderful pleasure of packing a house with a 2 year old and a 7 month old. Pretty much by myself. With the kids. It hasn't been all bad and I sorta started early.
One concern I had though was Will seeing everything he knew go away. This house is the only home he has known. He grew up here. Learned to walk, talk, play, everything. I was so concerned that he would panic at it all disappearing. That's thankfully where Shellie comes in.
Shellie is our real estate agent. Will knows her. Real well. He has seen her numerous times. Numerous. As a matter of fact, when we leave Diana's house, Will states we are going to see Shellie. We looked at a lot of houses.
The house we bought we have been to a few times. Will thinks its Shellie's house. So when I started packing and Will noticed key things getting wrapped and placed in boxes I told him it was going to Shellie's house. I asked if he liked Shellie's house, if he would like to live there, and he gave positive feedback. He is in on the game. He likes helping, he understands what is happening.
It's been real nice for me to have that tool in my pocket.
