I will take that as a sign that we are headed in the right direction.
We knew it was coming for the last 10 months.
We have been anxiously awaiting the news of where our next adventure will be.
As much as I hate to leave this beautiful, wonderful town we call home it is at the same time a relief to know.....to know where the next place is that we will call home.
I remember back to the feelings I had of leaving Wichita to come here.
The overwhelming feeling of the fear of the unknown.
Now this is home. And I Don't Want to Move. I want to cross my arms, stomp my feet and say I'm not going. I don't want to leave our friends, our church, our neighborhood, our doctors, our grocery store, the schools, the teachers, the town.
I love every time we leave the house I see familiar faces. The grocery clerk knows my name, we go to the pool and have many friends to spend the afternoon with. The kids play sports and dance with their friends. We have a church we call home.
But I choose to put on my big girl pants and make this the most exciting adventure the kids have ever been on. I choose to be my husband's biggest cheerleader. I choose to not let the stress of moving rub off on my kids. (truth be known I have failed a few times on that one they have been giving me hugs when they feel my stress) I choose to keep my eyes on Jesus and let him lead our way.
I know that God has allowed his kingdom to grow while we called Holmen our home and for that I will be forever grateful.
We will drive west two and half hours and call Minnesota our new home.

Soon Minnesota will be our "home sweet home"

I know how hard moving is. You have a great attitude which will help the children adjust. You will find yourself at home in MN before you know it. Plus it puts you a couple of hours closer to your mom. :)
