Hailey was here pt one

My mouse,

Today was a calmer day.

We’ve officially moved out of the old house, even though we haven’t said our official goodbye yet. Even though we’ve moved everything out & the keys have been turned in, we still plan on going back  at least one last time to say bye to our neighbors like Mr. Cho (who lived next door & would always mow our lawn because he knew Daddy works a lot). Bella’s friends & even Rocky’s too-his two girlfriends that live around the corner. :)

We still have a small box of Haileyrocks too that we plan to hide around the neighborhood. <3

I’m sure you saw how different the old townhouse already looks. The owner immediately started having his contractor paint, take out the carpets, etc. Sissy said that’s why she didn’t feel super sad the last day there-she said with all the changes it already didn’t feel like home. :(

But I was super sad baby girl.

I was working from there another week after we stopped sleeping there because the internet wasn’t set up here yet...so I had time to reflect, alone, with empty rooms filled with memories.

On one of the last days, in the middle of my shift, I decided to write this, on the back of your bedroom closet:

Afterwards I had this urge to cry & cry.

I held it in until I went to see you at the gardens after work. Those words: HAILEY WAS HERE.

There’s so much meaning in those words babygirl

You were here, and you were our everything. <3

I’ll have to continue this in the next letter because I still don’t have my laptop and writing this from my phone, it acts funny after posting pictures...
