We moved! Yeah, I know. We do it all of the time. Really and truly though, we hope that this is the last time in a very long time. And if it isn't, oh well. We're pros at this whole packing, moving and unpacking thing. It builds character. This was a short move- just 10 minutes up the road from the church parsonage to a home in Taneytown that we now own (well, the bank let's us say we own it). There are lots of reasons why we decided to move. It really just ended up being the best decision for our family for this season of our lives.
The new house is beautiful. It is much more than what I had envisioned when we first started house shopping-two stories, almost finished basement, garage, on a dead end street- it is really and truly perfect for us. But the very best part has nothing to do with bricks, rooms and grass. The very best thing about the new house is the neighbors. I will post pictures of all of the kids playing together when I get to my camera.
Gene (no idea if that's how you spell his name) and Amanda have 3 children- 2 girls and a boy. Their daughter Erin is Elijah's age (2 months younger), Elizabeth is Micah's age and Austin is 4 years old. They play together at every opportunity. Even better is the fact that Elijah and Micah are getting along with them so well. They always struggle with change a bit, but this time around, they have felt welcomed and included immediately. It has been the biggest blessing of this whole move. Thank you Lord for providing friends.
