Today we said goodbye to our home in Syracuse for the past twenty-five years. It was sad at first when I thought of leaving, but once all of the Heinisch children moved out, I knew that I didn't want to stay. The house was too big'; I wasn't sure how often they would be able to visit; and honestly, I didn't want to clean three levels with five bathrooms anymore. We also got a great price for our home. Thus, I knew that it was the right decision to make.
In saying that, it still was hard walking through our home one last time this morning. I knew that I would probably never drive down that street again, so pulling out of our driveway felt strange. As I headed to meet Doug at the real estate office, I thought a lot about Cameron's charge to his class at graduation. His words in May fit exactly how I felt today. We had an awesome twenty-five years of wonderful memories on Sunset Dr. filled with a lot of love. I would truly miss those days, but there was a whole world in front of us. It was not a time for sadness for the past, however, it was just the beginning of something new for the six of us!
