Saying Goodbye

Why is it that saying goodbye is so hard? Last night was our friends, Kelly and Nathan's last night in BG. They will be moving to Midland, Michigan today to start the next chapter of their lives and I can't help to feel selfish about it. I don't want them to go. I want them and all of the friends we have made over the years to be wherever we are. It seems like everyone we share our lives with and become close to, slips away to a new place. It has happened multiple times now since we have been married and it is just so dang hard to make new friends. I sit here crying because I know the gap that will be in my life for the next little while because I have experienced it before. I know that I will get to see my friends again although just not as often, and thankfully with today's use of blogs I can feel like I am still connected, but it is still hard. To all of our friends out there that we have had to say goodbye to, we love you, we can't wait to see you soon, and please, please, please keep the posts and emails coming.
