Necessary Endings...

Our oldest baby, the one who has made us grow the most, is taking a huge leap and moving to Chicago to attend a nationally renowned massage school- The Soma Institute. Oh, how I used to hate endings and I still kind of do... but this ending is one to be embraced because with it comes so much hope and brand new beginnings for this boy that we love so much.

It has warmed my soul over these last few months to watch how excited his brothers and sisters get when he comes over to play with them. They are already writing cards to mail to him and he isn't even on the plane!

I love my family more than words can say -as I'm sure every mother feels. Even though Ryker will be so far away we know that he will be well taken care of... spreading his wings and soaring.

It has been quite a ride with this one!!! We are so happy for him and the changes he has made to live his life doing something he believes in and we promise to continue trying to eat healthy even though he won't be around to constantly remind us:)

Thunder is really going to miss his walking buddy-

Ryker, we can't wait to hear about all your adventures, we know you can do anything you put your mind to, and we love you bunches!!
