Most of you who follow this blog, probably already know that we have decided to move to Colorado. Not only have we decided....we've actually started the act of moving. Our house is full of boxes; our life is half Michigan, half Colorado. But that's how our lives will always be. For as happy as I am to be moving back to Colorado, I am already feeling the loss of the life we've created here.
When I left Colorado I cried-no SOBBED and WEPT for days . It felt like I was leaving but my heart was staying. I didn't know who I am apart from those I've always loved and I was scared to find out. So scared,That I fought it. It took me two years to finally get to a place where I could accept that I needed to make a life for myself here, to have friends and to accept the family who so easily and lovingly accepted me. So as I look around my half Colorado, Michigan house, I am crying again. I am realizing just how unbelievable blessed I have been to find the people I have found. And I cannot in any way try to express how you all have pulled me out of the pit I let myself fall into into something so beautiful. It's only now, as I dismantle my Michigan life, that I realize just how much I already miss Michigan.
The details:
Mike, Mack and I will be staying with my parents while our house is on the market. They have a fully finished basement ( partly thanks to Mike) with more than enough room for us. One of his best friends , Andy , offered their house in Colorado Springs, but we aren't sure how long our house will be on the market and didn't want them to be kept from selling their house. As soon as our place sells, we'll be settling down somewhere between Brighton and Denver. And we'll be ready for visitors!
Prayers appreciated and I will update soon....
Love,
Mx3
P.S. Mack is excited to move ( though she doesn't fully understand what that means despite our explanations ) and just wants to make sure that Allllll of her toys follow her.
