I Love the Smell of Boxes in the Morning!

August 25, 2009 by Brian and Bailey Pruett

She knows the smell of boxes means change is coming.

We are moving again. It is scary when Maycie takes a look at our boxes and then at me, then at the boxes, then at me and says very matter of factly, “ingna.” I have no idea what it means, but it is clear she knows it means change is in the wind. It is really cute to see her put the pieces together. It is also very scary to think of the impact this will have on her life as she gets older. So far she seems to adapt very well to new people and is very sociable which helps a great deal.

We, on the other hand, are a bit harder to convince this is a happy thing. We hate moving! Especially now that many of our closest friends are here in Manila just starting language study, and we are just leaving. We love the excitement of a new place, and love all of the new things that come with a new place, but we loathe the process of packing and making decisions. Oh well. We are excited for this move in particular because it is the first time that we will be working as “full-missionaries” with NTMA doing what we set out to do long ago – assist NTM church planting efforts through aviation. No more school! At least as far as we can see. We can hardly wait!
