Our ward boundaries were just split.  I’ll be very honest in saying that I think we got the shaft on some levels — not all, but some.  So as I have been kind of bummed, I have told Scout and Navy about the change.  When I told Scout that he would be leaving a lot of his old friends, and that it might be different and a little hard, he nonchalantly said, “Well MOM, we can always just get in our car and drive to our old friend’s houses.”  And then he went on and said, “And MOM, you have me and Icka.  And we are all each others very best friends.”
Then as I was telling Navy the same thin.  As I was doing her hair for school, I said, “You know Ivy will go to church at a different time, but aren’t you excited because Sawyer will now get to be your church friend.”   She paused and looked at me, and said, “Mom, you are my very best friend.  Sawyer can only be my next friend.”

Well, at least Navy got to finally wear one of the favorite dresses I got her in France a year and a half ago.  Getting bad news is one thing.  Getting bad news while looking bad is a whole other!  Thanks goes out to the Frenchies for letting us get the shaft in style!
