I have not written in two weeks. Within the past two weeks, we have finally found a place to live in the town where my husband is teaching. My husband got a teaching job two and a half hours away at the end of August. He has been leaving Sunday evenings and then coming home Friday evenings. We found a house to move to, so this routine we have been in will come to an end. Our moving day is this Saturday! As you can imagine, I'm busy packing up everything while still taking care of our 5 kids since my husband is two and a half hours away teaching. We are so glad that we will be back together all the time after Saturday.
I have been taking a little break from writing in preparation for our move. I wanted to write real quick that we have found a place and we are so excited for our move. We hope our kids will do well with the move. Moving can be hard for kids, so keep our kids in your thoughts and prayers during this transition for them, and for us.
I talk a lot about my faith on my blog. I wanted to say that God is good. He has blessed our family with this exciting time. While moving can be stressful, this is such a good thing for our family. This verse came up in my reading this morning.
The words are so true. My husband and I waited patiently for the Lord to give my husband a teaching job.
There were times we wanted to give up, but instead we stood firm in our
faith when the answer was no.
We kept trusting God. Now, here we
are, getting ready to move. I'm not sure what you are going through
right now, but I pray you can find some peace and hope through this
verse. My husband and I made it through the waiting and it was worth it!
Whatever you are waiting for, keep trusting God. His timing is better
than our timing.
Next time I write on my blog, I will be writing from our new house.
Good to see you writing hun. No matter how busy u r keep writing, you will feel good.
ReplyDeleteWe moved a couple of years ago. The best moving tip I have is to hire a junk hauling company. We got rid of a garbage truck's worth of stuff, much of which they donated to charity for us.
ReplyDeleteCongrats, I am so happy that you've found a house which means you can all live together full time again. And wow Saturday, that's so soon x
ReplyDeleteOh nice. Lovely to know you guys have found a house to live. I hope you settle in quickly.
ReplyDeleteI so happy to hear your testimony, God does not disappointed those who truly believe in him. Can't wait to read your next blog. Congrats to you and your husband on the new job.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your new house! It must be hard packing up a house with 5 kids.
ReplyDeleteOh that's wonderful news! Congratulations on finding a new house closer to your husbands new job and good luck with the move!
ReplyDeleteOOO this is great news! Moving is really stressful, but it can also be really exciting and fun! I hope it is a smooth move!
ReplyDeleteNice for you to finally live in the city where your husband works, and so have everything behind it ...
ReplyDeleteNow you can concentrate on good writing again. But also think about yourself well. I wish you every success in your new home.
Finding a home, and in the same city where you husband works, is wonderful! I know the commute has been challenging. Thank you for sharing your experience.
ReplyDeleteWe moved to follow my husband career also. I’m happy you are writing again.
ReplyDeleteMoving can be stressful but it also very exciting. Congrats on your new home.
ReplyDeleteIn 2014 we moved to a new state for my husband's career, and that was challenging in itself. A month after we moved, we found out that we were pregnant, ever since then we've been saving up enough money to buy a home and finally accomplished that goal in August of 2018. It was a hard move for our daughter, she didn't quite understand. My best advice is to set up the younger child's room first to help them adjust better, and also allow you a little more free time to unpack the rest of the house once you're in your new space. Best of luck, and you all are in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteThat's so great you were able to find a place so close to your husbands work. I know living far away for such a long period of time when I was with my ex would have driven me crazy. God is good and I am glad you are doing so well.
