''Arriving at destination said the pilot." I heaved a sigh of frustration. My mom and I got off the plane. Mom hopped into the small silver Toyota we rented to drive to our new house. I climbed into the passenger seat and slammed the car door shut.  I heard a buzz from my purse. My purse had Mickey Mouse comic strips on it. I took out my phone. My phone had a quote on it that said "Keep Calm and Pray" with praying hands on the bottom of it. I got a text message from my best friend Lilly. Hey how is everything? Eh. I guess I'm doing horrible 😭. I miss home. I miss my dad. I miss you. :(. I know it's hard. :(. But guess what?

Christmas Decorations. Skyler's Baby Clothes. There we go I said. I took the boxes in that said Skyler's Room Decor and Sky's Pics. I brought them into the first empty room I saw. Mom and the moving van put the rest of the boxes inside. Thanks my mom said to the moving van guy. No problem. Have a good one. He wrote down his number and winked at mom. Sorry but I'm married. My husband's in the army. Oh, sorry he said looking embarrassed. Bye. He said rushing to the van. My mom and I laughed for 2 minutes. Then she said ok let's unpack. Ok I said frowning.
