Somewhere on I-94, all of our belongings (including our car!) are traveling eastward, headed to Boston. The movers started packing the house around 7:30am yesterday and pulled out of Flossmoor about 12 hours later.

We brought the girls by the house so Hannah could see everything being packed up. My hope is that this will help her understand where our belongings are when we stop at the house next week and it is empty. I learned that she doesn't understand the whole concept with perfect clarity when she asked when the movers were going to pack up grandma and grandpa's house. Ooops. Guess she'll learn soon enough that they won't be 3 miles away in Boston.

So now we are camped out at my parents' house. I fly out next weekend to help Trapper unpack boxes. Then the following week we will all be out there for good! The last phase of this transition has begun!
