We are leaving from Pasadena to move back to the East Coast in 16 days, and the amount that we are trying to do this summer is actually impossible without the help of others. Some kind of pride in me resists receiving love to this level and relying others, and I am really blown away by how people have responded to us.
My parents not only drove to Williamsburg to pack up a Uhaul for us from our house we are selling there, but went the extra 10 miles by making up for Uhaul and driving to Norfolk to pick it up because they didn't have one in Williamsburg. They then rearranged their schedule and loaded up the truck and drove it all the way to Raleigh to our new house.
Bryce, Laurie, and Braden also helped with stuff in Williamsburg as well as 4 Tribe football players that I haven't met yet.
Then, our new church community in Raleigh, re-arranged their schedule to help move in our stuff there in less than a half-hour. Wow. We reall are blown away. There will be a big party when we get there.
Shannon Smith said there should be MVP awards given out...and I think he is implying that he deserves it for carrying our grill without a wheel, our two ton TV, and our pull-out couch. Any others in the running?
Thank you so much for the love

thanks for being willing to receive it. love, the mom
p.s. sorry shannon- i get the mvp. you have no idea how much i HATe to drive on Interstate- especially at nite.
mishna
p.s. or maybe traci- she did get paint spilled on her as well as organizing the whole thing.
I wasn't saying that I deserved the MVP. If it were to be given to me, I would have to turn it down, or at least make it a co-MVP. Matt and I carried all those things together.
Mrs. P. we'll give you the coaches award for your sacrifice.
About Traci, we don't give out awards for clumbsiness, and I don't think I would give her credit for the church working the way it should. Maybe we'll give her an honorable mention.
you guys have obviously already experienced some kind of MVP award.. me- i've always wanted one....coaches award fits in to the "She tried really hard but didn't do a very good job" category. If I don't get MVP, I guess i'll just have to try harder next time. oh wait- maybe i don't need to .i see the light!
thanks, mishna
but can't i get MVP at something?....why do i want to? i'm hopeless. thank God for His hope.
I'm going to wait and cast the vote for MVP until after we see who picks up yard duty...
It is a joy to see the body working the way it should
yeah, we'll see, shannon is trying to extort me.
you could get it for driving across the country
