An end

Our lives have been so busy lately. So many things we've done and want to share. However, today is a turning point for us. Today was John's last day going to work. For the next few months, he will be on vacation, so many vacation days we didn't use. He will use them now.

Today, the girls and I attended John's farewell luncheon with his co-workers. Those people who have shared the same building with John for the last nine years. The people he calls friend. It was heart warming to hear all the wonderful things people had to say about him; but I've know for a couple of decades how wonderful he is.

Starting tomorrow he will no longer put on his uniform then drive to work. I will not trip over his work boots in the foyer. There will be no more every other Monday off. So many changes are coming to our little family. So many things will be different. One will stay the same: we will all be together.
