The move

by Mustang Patty

An email came in the usual way,
Its message made for a happy day.

Hubby's former boss wanted him back,
For electrical work, he had a knack.

"Yes, we will come back to Oregon," was all we could say,
There really wasn't any reason in New Mexico to stay.

Thrilled at the prospect, we began to pack,
We couldn't wait to get back.

So excited for moving day,
We couldn't wait to be on our way.

We packed the car, the boxes in a stack,
Lovingly, the dogs were placed in the back.

We left the sunshine and lower pay,
Returned to the Northwest, where we will stay.

After moving to New Mexico for the birth of our first grandchild, our daughter, who is in the Air Force, was then stationed in Virginia. We prayed for a solution, and it came one day in an email. There wasn't really any question as to whether we would make the move; my husband was working as a long-haul trucker, and was only home 3 days a month. The move gave us better pay, and more time together.
