Even though you are now replacing that pressure with more, to have a job in this economy is so so important!<br /><br />The move is exciting. We were very excited for our adventure four years ago. <br /><br />You know it will be rough. The missing and longing for family never really goes away, you just have to learn to handle it and being prepared for it helps so much. <br /><br />A friend of mine who was relocated quite often due to her husband's job told me that it would take at least six months before you start really meeting and making friends...good friends. She was right.<br /><br />I think it is harder for homeschooling families because you (mom) have to work really hard to help your children make new friends. At the same time, you are mourning the loss of closeness to your friends and family back home.<br /><br />I almost gave up homeschooling that year. But I was determine to stick it out and once we made it through the summer, we were all set once more for yet another year of homeschooling. <br /><br />Patience is truly a virtue and you will be tested. But God willing, it will all work out for you and your family.<br /><br />BTW, you will NOT miss the constant cold and yucky weather. Even though we've had over 8 weeks of scorching heat down here this summer, I'd still take it over the ice and snow. I love the constant blue skies! <br /><br />At any rate, blessings to you and your family on this new chapter in your life. It will work out. Be patient and trust in God!Pattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01651016998027244516noreply@blogger.com
