For weeks, well, pretty much ever since we moved, Ella has been praying for David to get a new job. Just the other night she elaborated on that thought with me, telling me, "Daddy needs to get a job so we can get our house before someone else gets it."
David and I talked, and yes, she hasn't understood that our house is sold. She thinks we are living here because David lost his job, and not because we were selling our house. *sigh*
Today David took Ella with him when he went to pick Sarah up from her friends house in our old neighborhood. They drove by the old place, and Ella wanted to go in. At this point David tells her that we can't because someone else lives there now.
She finally got it.
And then she cried herself to sleep in the big chair.
I think we're all a little sad today.

Oh, that is so sad! Poor Ella. :(
Hugs to Ella! I remember being very sad each time I "lost" a house. Then things would get infinitely happier when we'd "find" the house Heavenly Father had 'waiting' for us. Perhaps that will help her...
Meanwhile, Hugs to YOU - I hope you're feeling happy soon <3
Well, maybe getting to go to kindergarten every day will help the sad little girl. Miss talking to you every day. May things always have a bright spot for you. Remember your motto, The best is yet to come.
Can Ella come and play? Auntie Esther's solution to stinky days is a girls night complete with Wii and ice cream . . . ;-)
Oh, sad! Moving can be hard. :^(
