We went out to dinner tonight with our friends that are leaving town. We took Christian along and he just slept in a chair at the end of the table. :)
After walking out and saying our good-byes, Courtney and I were pretty emotional. We are really going to miss them!
In the car, Courtney started talking about how Miki is her very, very best friend and 50 "plain" friends would not equal one Miki!! She kept going on and on about how her best friend is moving away and how heartbroken she is. (She has not cried about her moving away in a couple of weeks and all of the sudden, it hit her!)
She then went on about how she wants to move to Illinois with them! "Dad, can we move away too? Can we move to where Miki is moving? Please??"
Matt told her back, "If we moved to Illinois, we wouldn't get to see grandma and grandpa."
Christian decided to add his opinion of this all. His response, "Really?" He had caught on to what we were talking about and if you know Christian, you know that he loves his two grandpas! He would be heartbroken if we moved away!
We told her it is ok to be sad and cry about her friend moving away. We are going to see them this summer, but that doesn't help her much!
