Inspired by "Goodnight Moon"
Goodbye Meadows
Goodbye Trees
Goodbye Art Galleries
And Museums sans Fees
Goodbye Temple
With Christmas Lights
Goodbye Orchestra
And Office Sights
Goodbye Sailing
On Potomac Waters
Goodbye Fencing Club
For Dad and Daughters
Goodbye Shenandoah
the best teachers in town
Goodbye hot DC Summers
And pools to cool down
Goodbye Boston
And NYC
Goodbye ponies
and blossoms of DC
Au revoir to our friends who've become family
Please come visit us soon
in our new home by the sea

Beautiful, bitter sweet farewells..
So true. I'm going to run out of tears.
I have the most wonderful and clever sister!
Is this your Christmas card? So creative! Loved the rhyming, the Goodnight Moon takeoff, the wonderful pictures, etc. Fantastic in every way. -Mom
This is BEAUTIFUL! I loved it so much. It reminded me of when we left the East coast. Best wishes on the move and getting settled.
Really lovely. Moving is hard. Every place has so much and so many people to love. I've heard some good things about the Pacific northwest, though...
But hello West Coast
And family dear
Hello Hello
And Happy New Year!
Mom, Yes this is our Christmas card for this year. Thanks, Linn and Gina. We hope we can see you now that we'll be closer! Joyce, love it! So glad I have Grandpa's 100th bday to look forward to in the craziness of the move!
So beautiful. This needs to be made into a real book for you to read when you're homesick.
