Look straight ahead, there's nothing but blue skies..... 

  I can see clearly now, the rain is gone! 

Patty tried hard not to fall apart, yet the tide of sadness began to drown her.  The moment had arrived, a lasting moment. Their life would never be as private and calm as this.  Her eyes were brimming, and a quiet sob escaped her lips. He quickly took her into his arms and held her as she cried. 

As she sobbed she tried to talk. ‘Oh I didn’t know it would hurt like this Blue. I had our baby son here just weeks ago. Oh how I loved this quiet forest. The trees and flowers and creatures all made me feel at home.’ She laid her head on his shoulder as he held her.

Her sadness was huge, her body hot with emotions. He felt her pain, and winced. ‘My love, change is hard but oh so good. Now let all the tears and the joy come out and you will feel the surge of newness arrive.’ 

‘Mama why are you crying? Do you want me to carry David?’ Patty looked over at her sweet daughter. The love in her eyes as she gazed at her brother, gave her a bolt of love that shot all the sadness out. 

She stood tall, looked up at him. ‘I love you and our life has always been a blessing. Let’s take our babies to the Northeast. Becky I can carry him, you get what you want before we go, they are waiting for us.’ The family began their journey into the new world of the Bluesage Family

Halfway through their forest, Becky stopped. 'I don't want to move. I want to stay here.'

Bluesage knew this was hard on both of them, yet he knew their lives would be forever changed with the adventures in their future. His little girl cried on her dad's shoulder, he patiently waited for her.

Patty hummed quietly to herself, knowing it was going to be okay after they left the forest.

'Really, this is the time to hurry. The plane leaves in five hours, we must hurry.'

Patty and Blue quickly worked out what Becky could carry and what the baby needed. Soon the car was speeding down the road. Everyone had a deep feeling inside, yet it soon enough would turn into a large sense or relief and joy.
