One Down...

I'm back, I came home to a sailor of a 3 year old, but he's cute and I'm back. Upon exiting the airport, Ethan and I saw a car full of our men. I couldn't help but smile HUGE when I saw their little heads in the back seat. They were smiling HUGE too! We were so happy to see each other! I opened the door to the back seat to get my huggs and they both said, "ETHAN!" Then the three of them laughed deep belly laughs and they hugged each other and reunited. It was incredibly cute! They laughed with each other the whole way home, so happy to be together again. I always prayed that they would be very close brothers. It only hurt a little that they didn't care at all that I was back.

So, yes, I found a house. It is a bit different then what I had pictured I would get when we went down there but it's great. It's bigger (sq.ft.) than any place we've ever lived and it's only about $55.00 more a month than we pay now. I like it so much because of it's location. It is within walking distance to the #1 school in the state. Right net door to that school is an awesome preschool with a great pre-kindergarten program. We are a one car family so the location is awesome. Scott can still do whatever he needs to do to get this church off the ground, and I can still totally run the house and handle the kids. The fact that it's such a great school made us decide that we'll try the school thing first, and if it doesn't work out, we know we can homeschool. The house doesn't have a pool, but the neighborhood has several really awesome pool/ water playground things that the kids and I can also walk to. It's gonna be tons of fun!

Now, I'm off to empty my suitcase, do some laundry, then fill my suitcase again. On Tuesday we head to Chicago to fly to Denver for a week. Ok, here we go...

Your new home sounds amazing! God is so good! I have tears right now. I have been praying for such a blessing for you, and He's delivered!! YAY! We did the same thing regarding school (giving it a try first) and things have gone wonderfully (to my surprise, I'll admit) so far.

I really hope I can visit you someday- I've never even been to Florida!

Glad to hear everything went good! We'll pray that your move goes just as well!
