Goodbye Modesto

I loved the short time we stayed here. Our ward was great, there were two parks within walking distance, the library was fun, the house had plenty of space, and our neighbors were friendly. It was nice to have our own space for a while, and kind of a sense of normalcy. It wasn't somewhere I wanted to be permanently just because of the congestion and the summer heat, but the time we were there was a huge blessing. I particularly loved their primary song leader. She was amazing. I had a hard time that the children were singing songs my kids did not know and she responded with such love and compassion.
