Last week, the kids and I were exploring our town, kind of saying goodbye. Colin is sad to change schools, but somewhat excited for something new. I explained that we would definitely keep in touch with his friends.
Meli is excited for the move, but at the same time not quite sure what is going on. She seems a little unsettled. I think it was hard because we stayed in a house at Sunriver, then at a family members house (once we sold our house), then finally into the new house. I think she just needed it to be done so she knew the final picture. Somewhat a rough behavioral weeks for her, but at the same time it was somewhat understandable. She was very nervous whenever I would leave. Made me so sad.
During our exploring, we came across this cute little guy. The first time we saw him, he was laying down and did not look like he was going to make it (or dead already). We headed to our destination (ice cream) and said a prayer (at the request of Colin) that either the little guy would be OK or if not, it would be quick for him.
On our way back towards him, I could hear Colin behind me whispering a little prayer behind me ("let him be OK, let him be OK"), Colin swears that when we got to him his eyes just opened! I am thinking it was before that, but he is adamant about it.

We must have sat and watched this guy for at least 30 minutes. I was surprised he did not scurry away. Especially with Meli fairly close to him. I am guessing that he was injured somehow, but did not see any obvious marks. Hopefully he ended up OK.
It was so sweet to see Colin (and Meli) so concerned about him (or her). I love their big hearts. Definitely a melting heart mom moment.
