I need to make this quick because I am at the public library, seeing as we no longer have internet at home.
Why do we no longer have internet at home? Because we've spent the past week moving!
It's been about the craziest two weeks ever, and I'm exhausted. All the packing, moving, unpacking, not to mention the incredible amount of roller-coaster emotions I'm still trying to sort out...
Two Fridays ago, Eric closed on the house.
The following Monday we got the keys.
Tuesday we hired piano movers and rented a U-Haul truck to cart all our heavy furniture, etc. across town. We also got Caleb's room set up so he would be comfortable and unafraid in this new setting.
Wednesday I spent six straight hours cleaning up the rental. When Eric and Trisha got there, I was able to take off for dance class (which F. and I decided to skip in liu of pizza, wine, and Sex and the City).
Thursday unpacked the kitchen and living room.
Friday unpacked the music room and our bedroom.
Saturday I worked.
Sunday I helped in elementary Sunday school. And then I rested. That night Eric and I drank a bottle of champagne in celebration of our new home.
Monday I really rested.
So there we have it up until now. More details and pictures to come, soon, I hope. We'll see how the internet situation works out. For now I'm content to spend time here at the library. It's my happy place. :)

New Beginning, New Name
So yet again I've embarked on a new online journal.
I suppose it's fitting, right? A new phase of life, a new journal.
The name I chose for this one suits me: Considering Sparrows and Lilies.
Because, as instructed by Jesus, I am trying not to worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow has enough worries in itself.
We are on the brink of a new beginning. The past two years have been so overwhelmingly full of changes and obstacles, but we've come past it all. Sure, there are still things being worked out, worked on, and worked through. But for now, I am secure in my job situation, as is Eric in his. Caleb is a wonderful little boy, and such a light and joy that everything we've gone through is absolutely and undeniably worth it. Soon Eric will start his new job, we will start looking to buy a house, and I will begin taking a dance class and academic class.
The future is bright, and I am so excited for all it holds for us.
