Weary
That's how I'm feeling these days. Christmas is 4 days away, and I'm ready for it to arrive, as in NOW. Because I need the holidays to be over. Is that awful? My house is in a state of disarray, which seems reflective of my inner self these days. I can't seem to get my act together, like my brain is only halfway functioning this month. And maybe it isn't the holidays, but this move (the 6th move in 4 1/2 years, by the way). I'm tired of moving and renting and moving and renting again. These were the choices we made, of course, and we've enjoyed our adventures, but I'd love to slow down and settle for a few years. I have 2 weeks to pack up everything...guess I better get going!

Let me know if you need some help with the moving...well, I wouldn't be that much help with the unpacking because my 2 kiddos would get in the way but I would gladly watch avery so that you could get some stuff done faster! Really, wouldn't mind at all!

Need to get you, Luke and Miss Aves down to the studio before you go for an updated Family Portrait
I know your weariness. We also had moved 6 times by our 4 year anniversary. All in rentals. My desire for a house was so strong- and still is, but something changed. My heart was changed. I pray I will have a house someday, but if I never have a house on this earth, I can still be happy. After all, our only true forever house is in Heaven. We will be praying for you. Let us know when you get moved.
Thanks Maegan! I definitely needed to hear that today. It does get disheartening at times to not be in "my own place" but you're right, our home isn't really here. And a house is just a structure to shelter us. Home is where Luke and Avery are, whether we own it or not. But even that knowledge still doesn't change my desire for a house. Thanks for your prayers - hopefully some heart-change will happen in me too. :)
