I realize I haven’t mentioned it before, but my mom is actually coming to live with us in less than two weeks! I am so excited to spend more time with her, and see her more than once every year or so. She moved to Oregon years ago after I left the nest, and fell upon some hard times, and now we finally convinced her that she should move back to Texas and be with more of her family! She’s seen Matthew, three times I think, since he was born. Not acceptable! Now she’ll be living in our city and seeing him ALL THE TIME! I am just so excited for Matthew to have his grandma, and for her to have him, and us. Plus, I miss my mommy. We were always (and still are, other than geographically) very close and I sure do miss having her around.
She’ll be making the trek by herself, though she’s got a few places to stop in between. Hey, it pays to have family and friends scattered around the country! 
I know she’s got insurance for the drive, and decent insurance in general.. which is really important. I really think people don’t take insurance seriously enough.. but you should, just check out somewhere like www.wholesaleinsurance.net.. paying a little bit per year to protect yourself and your belongings? Totally worth it. Of course, hopefully she has no issues with the drive and the vehicles, her, and her belongings will all make it in one piece. 
I can’t wait!
