I have such mixed feelings tonight. I could possibly have put my kids to bed in their bedrooms for the last time. Tomorrow we will move out of our home. This house has been such a blessing. We moved in when Anderson had just turned 1 and Karoline was 2 1/2. This is really the only house they really know. They were too young to remember our California home. They learned so much and became a little man and little woman in this house! They both experience their first days of school in this house. The kids and even us have changed a lot in the almost 4 years we have lived here. This house has changed so much since we moved in and we are sad to leave but excited about the possibility of building another home. We should close on this house early next week and will move in with my parents. That should be a fun journey.
But I cannot help but see Gods hands in all of this. Yesterday my mom called telling me Dad was taken to the hospital via ambulance. We arrived there shortly after and Mom and I were with him in the ER. We were just talking when Dad began to have another bad seizure. It was the SCARIEST thing I have EVER seen! It broke my heart to see my dad so helpless and I could do nothing to help him. All I could do was run out of the room and scream for help!
Tests have been run and there is no major damage but we have a long road ahead of us to make sure Dad is healthy. Dad cannot drive and really should not be alone for at least 6 months. I am thankful that with our moving in we might can help out. Cook healthy food, go on family walks, and just be there for support. Maybe this was what God had planned. I don't know for sure and I could be wrong but for now, I am thankful.
So we begin another journey of our lives. We will begin to look for a lot and pray for a "only God could do that" price :) And pray that God will help us and guide our choices as we build a new home for our family that might be our home for a VERY long time... because this moving thing is for the birds... my back is done :) How do we have so much stuff! I wanted to post the pictures from our listing so I can remember my house clean :) haha
Thank you Lord for this house. Thank you for the memories made and providing this home when we desperately needed it and helped us settle into life here in Myrtle Beach! Thank you for the blessings of great neighbors and protection. Thank you for our buyers who came quickly and may this home be a huge blessing for them and their young children as well! Lord you are good and faithful! In the good and the bad, YOU are faithful!
