We are here.
M does not believe we are in Iowa.
"We not in Iowa!!!!!"
She also has a problem with open doors - a problem when unpacking.
I said:
"M is slightly OCD about doors."
M said:
"I AM NOT A CD!!!!!"
E is turning into a Disney princess due to too much movie watching... complete with sass and quick one-liners. I am ready to be done with movies, but they keep us sane while boxes come undone.
GQ only wants a friend. Someone to hold him, and love him, and acknowledge that he exists, and not create barriers of boxes around him so that he doesn't get into anything.
What's wrong with chewing cords, he asks?
What's wrong with playing with outlets, he asks?
What's wrong with falling full tilt down the stairs?
Tomorrow is Sunday, and I am so glad that we will have a rest from our labors.
And on that point, an ode to the Elder's Quorum....
Oh, Elder's Quorum,
Oh, Elder's Quorum,
thanks for risking death for me,
I promise you,
when I move again,
I will try to have money to pay someone.
The end...
I would tell you what I think about Iowa, but since I pretty much hang out in my house in my pajamas unloading boxes, I am very much of the impression that I am still in good ol' SLC.
The mountains are just hiding from me.
Sigh.
"Earth's crammed with heaven, And every common bush afire with God, But only he who sees takes off his shoes, The rest sit 'round it and pluck blackberries."

You're really in Iowa? Maybe you should just come back home now.
Whew! Glad you're there and starting to settle. Can't wait for more updates!
Welcome home! Good luck with the boxes. Keep 'em. You'll be moving again before you know it!
The mountains are hiding from us, too, out here in Arkansas. Or I'm hiding from the humidity. Haven't decided.
Knowing you everything will be in place before you know it and who cares if its not.
Glad to hear you made it! We've been here for 3+ weeks now, and I'm still hiding in my pajamas unpacking some days.
Can't wait to hear your Iowanian tales.
No you are not here. I wish you were, but I wish you well too!
We miss the kittens.
