Oh my heart! Those aren't even my boxes of books and I'm sad that they're going! 😂

Seriously though, I hear you. Back about a decade ago, we (me, husband, and three kids) decided to downsize to a ridiculous degree so we could move into a camper full time. Letting go of boxes of books like yours was one of the hardest things for me to do. My collection had already been involuntarily downsized some years before, thanks to a leaky roof, so it made it that much more difficult.

I think you have a great attitude about it though! I have no doubt you will eventually have your cozy reading nook & LFL, and it will be even better than you imagined. Sending lots of good house moving juju your way!
