Moving to a new area is never easy but we were both just really hoping the transition wouldn’t be too hard on the kids. My husband’s new job finally made it affordable for us to get a bigger house out in the country but I hated having to pick my kids up and take them away from the school and friends they loved.
I love the idea of starting over, though, so I think it’s going to be a really good change for the whole family. When we first got here I researched school sports they could play and satellite internet pricingso they could email with all their friends back home (I think they’re still too young for cell phones) and I talked to them one on one about what the change was going to mean.
They start school in just a couple of weeks and I know they’re all really nervous but I can’t wait for this next phase in their life. I already love it here and I know with a little time, so will they.
