Stress???

Yesterday I wasn't sure if my son would last all day at school.  He's been coughing and his voice sounds hoarse.  But he's not complaining of a sore throat.  He's been going to bed great at night no fighting...i think he's exhausted.  However we have already had quite a few disagreements today.  He has a friend over and he's taking great care of him- and in a great mood!  Today we were on the phone with my mom and he asks "When we sell our log house can we move back here?"  My heart just broke.  I explained to him that when we move we wont be coming back to this house.  That the log house will be our new house.  Also i told him we were going to have a sandbox in the basement for him and his sister to play with.  Seemed to calm him down.  I think this move is not only stressing Mommy and Daddy but also the kids.  Why wouldn't it....Do any of you  have suggestions on how to make the transition easier?

Hubby will be leaving next Saturday and not coming back till the 17th.  I think we might be out of the house before he comes back.  Trying not to stress out because I know if I start i wont be able to stop.  There is no need to do so.  Let's enjoy the remaining days here in Tillsonburg, lets go to playgroups, lets go to friends houses, let's not worry about this house so much.  When the movers come to pack up they do! Until then it's all about spending time as a family as much as we can, because we sure will miss Daddy (and his calming influence!)
