Many people have been asking me how I am feeling about the move....
I will be completely honest...
I have struggled with the fact of moving.
I have really grown to love South Carolina the past 9 months that I have been down here. It was rough at first moving to a new place, but over time I adapted and have met some wonderful people. I also am thankful for having my in-laws close and also my best friend Jill, 2 hours away.
I have also enjoyed the time that I have had with John down here in South Carolina. It has been so extremely good for our marriage to be away from PA to start off. It's just I never went away from college, never moved out of my home town and have just desperately been craving full independence.
Looking back I enjoyed the challenge of coming to a place where no one knew me and I knew no one. It forced me out of my comfort zone and I have met some wonderful, wonderful people. I think I am most sad about this. It's been said that it takes someone about 6-7 months to adapt to a new place. I am just past that mark. I see SOOO much potential in relationships with the people I have met down here, and it makes me sad that my time with them has been cut short. However, I am thankful for social media and technology. People are no more than a click away at any time. But, I just want the people I have met down here, and you know who you are, that I appreciate you so much :)
All that to say... I love my husband and am behind him 100%. I wouldn't want to be moving with anyone else :) We know that this is where the Lord is leading us for right now... so we choose to follow.
