It's hard to say goodbye

Tonight is a sad night for me!
My cousin and kids are having to move back to WV tomorrow! I said my last goodbyes for who knows how long. I'm heartbroken! Eventhough we sometimes go months without actually seeing each other I know they are down the street if I need or want them!

Girlie has gotten so close to Aunt Shelly and even adores DeeDee and Zack so much. It's going to be so tough knowing they aren't in LaVergne :( I've already had to say goodbye to Michelle once. When I was a teenager she got married and moved to Germany with her husband. I was devestated then. So crushed. I remember the day she came back from Germany like it was yesterday. (Ah, it's my blog I'm sharing the story...)
My grandmother owned a beauty shop (she's hands down the best hairdresser around) and I went to the shop nearly everyday after school. Well this was just another day and I had just gotten home from school. When I walked into the shop someone was holding this most adorable little boy. He was about 8 months old or a little more. I asked who he was and they said Zack. I was like Zack who? And Michelle walked out of the restroom and I ran and hugged her. It was so great seeing her! I can remember that moment so vividly!

Michelle's always been like a big sister to me. Growing up I wanted to be Shell. She was the best in my eyes (and she still is). It breaks my heart that they are moving so far away and I won't be able to see her often or almost never. I hope that it's meant for us to see each other more often than I anticipate now.

So, Aunt Shelly, Zack & DeeDee we wish you guys the best at your new life in WV! We'll miss you so much but know that we are thinking and praying for you! Don't ever forget you have a home right here in TN! And maybe someday we'll get our chance at another fantastic reunion!

I LOVE YOU! Miss you already!
*KISSES*
