Just had our last dinner at our cute lovely house. We are moving to Dane's parents'place this weekend. This house is the place where many of our memorable moments happened. It's not a big brand new house, in fact it's nearly 20 years old and is quiet small compare to today's brand new houses out there. However this house means a lot to me because of the people who live in it. :D People whom I love so much.

On the same note about house, I watched this short film from 15Malsysia called 'house' tonight. It's quite touching. That poor little boy who's dream house was the house his father built really catches my emotion. What does your house mean to you? What is your dream house like? Do you think the size, the decor, the layout, the landscape, or the design is important for your house? Or maybe you are willing to have a small and simple house that you and your loved ones are happy and contend. I would choose the latter. It's better to have a happy family in a small house than a big house with a broken family. Bye bye house!  

Finally, we have started to pack our stuffs into boxes and throwing away things that we don't need anymore. We are getting ready to move to Dane's parents house and preparing the house for rent. At the same time, Dane is getting ready to go for his training in less than 5 weeks. I won't be able to see him for 10 weeks and I am sure it will be hard.. Jono will be very sad too as he is a real daddy's boy. I was trying to explain to him that daddy is going away for training and we won't see him for a while. He replied 'why is daddy going to ride on the train and not taking me?" Hahaha, how cute.

I was so emotional when trying to pack away things and thinking about leaving our house behind. This house has so many memories and we (especially me) really love it. I cannot stand the thought that someone else is going to live in it soon and it is really sad. Not that we haven't moved before but this time is different, we are actually moving away from all things we love---our family, our house, our friends, our lives in Brisbane and many many things here.

To ease the transition, I try to see it as a new start for us wherever we are going to be posted. Looking forward to decorate the new house, exploring the new place, and meeting new people. We have been teaching Jono to memorise Bible verses, and of the them is "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9. YES, we know our God is with us wherever we are going. THANK YOU LORD for your wonderful promises!
