I spent most of the day at a YW event at church and had a good time. Many of the girls are pretty close to my age and I feel like I’m developing friendships with them, more than I am an authority figure. But I don’t think that’s necessarily a bad thing.
The big news at home is that Rachel and Guy have decided not to buy a house. But that’s not the end of it. They have decided that after she graduates in a few months they will look at job opportunities on the west coast and move away completely. This impacts us in two ways. Not only would I be losing my sister and best friend to a 3000 mile distance, but Guy is Jayson’s boss at work, so who knows what might change there if Guy leaves.
So there’s that. Even though it’s several months away and not even a sure thing, I cried with Rachel said it to me. I think that made her feel bad, but I wasn’t trying to do that. It was just an honest reaction to the news.
I bought her a card today. I wrote in it: “I just want you to know you are my best friend and I love you, but if moving is the right thing for you in your life right now, I support you. I’m sorry if I made you feel bad.” And I put it under the door to their part of the house. That was just a few minutes ago so I don’t know if she’s even seen it yet.
In good news, my son has his one-year appointment with his cardiologist today and got a clean bill of health. He said his heart has completely healed itself, so that’s really awesome news.
