Once upon a time....

Once upon a time…..my family decided it was time for an adventure. (Or my husband’s company did, but same difference). We have embraced it. The time is coming near and our emotions are all over the place. While we are excited about our new adventure, we are very sad about the people we are leaving. Bean is sad about Kraft Ranch Dressing and Macaroni and Cheese. No, Kraft does not pay me to say this, but I did realize just how many products they make that we use, and won’t be able to find over there. Our flights were booked today for March 17th. It makes things feel….final. We are ready to go, but at the same time, we are not ready at all. We will have a lot to learn, we will have new people come into our lives, but we will not forget our friends back home. We are going to extremely miss our family and our friends and I am sure we will be homesick. But we are also optimistic -that this adventure we are going to be on for the next two years will be a once in a lifetime experience. We will live in and explore a new country, we will travel all over Europe, and we will learn to appreciate other cultures. As we try to make our last moments before we leave as special as we can, I pray that God will lead us down the right path for the next few years.
