Farewell, Brooke!

We had our dear babysitter, Brooke, and her husband, Devin, over for dinner last night and enjoyed spending some time with them before they move next week. It was a tearful goodbye, and one that took me back a few years. Once upon a time I was that girl who was newly married, loved kids, and was attached to a certain family I loved to babysit for and spend time with (love and miss you still, Devines!). Suddenly, we are the older couple ten years into marriage with a couple of kids, reliving those days of first-home searching, family contemplating, just-the-two-of-us time as we talk with Brooke and Devin. Time really does fly. We wish you all the best, Brooke! You will always hold a special place in our hearts as our first official babysitter.
