Above is a photo of our home for the last five years. The place where we’ve brought home 2/3 babies, made memories, spent time with family and friends, and so much more is being sold. This has been a tough and major process for us as Mike and I have been truly praying for almost 3/4 years what our next season of life would be. I wasn’t expecting a major move in the plans! We knew that changes were coming and one of them is we’re moving to Georgia! This is a major family faith move.
After a year of connecting and having honest convos about life in this next season, we are officially moving to Georgia! To write this still makes my heart thump out of my chest. We’ve never made such a significant life change, but we know this is exactly what we should be doing.
My heart feels so much as we prepare to move. Even more so as our house has sold in less than three days! Seriously, I’m trying to not ask for a million signs to confirm this transition – but that’s a huge one.
The boys are excited. However, as we discuss it more the reality sets in that we won’t be near any family soon. That’s one thing I’ve been most grateful for over the last several years of motherhood – we have a tribe. Not just a family one, but a close friend one as well. My kids see their cousins regularly and it’s a normal I will hate to see go the most.
One major change as we prep to move is, I won’t be working outside of the home anymore! I know!?! I’m actually going to be staying home and focusing on other areas. I’m extremely thankful that Mike made this a priority as we discussed transitioning out of our jobs and possibly to this new position for him. To know he wants us both to invest into some areas of me personally is a treasure I’m not taking for granted.
We have a lot to pack and sort through, but it’s happening. Some days it’s surreal, while others I can’t wait to see what’s in store for us. This year is most certainly ending with a bang for sure…
