Settling In!

We moved recently and we love our new place. We live on a hiking trail and walking distance than more things I could possibly ever list. I'm so happy. Life is wonderful and I'm so excited about everything. I can't get over the transformation of my entire being from even just a year ago.

I feel like I am thriving. Like my children are thriving. They know that when I say something that I mean it. The days of empty promises are over. We laugh and spend more time doing things that they like to do. It's really very cool to have the feeling of impending doom behind me..

Today, I was at work and this feeling came over me and I began to think about my daughter and all the things she loves to do. I felt calm and pride and the warmest feeling. I realized, again, how truly blessed I really am. When I feel that, I also feel guilt but I also know that I don't have to continue to feel guilty or wish things were different. They ARE different!

Life is Great!
