Moving on to Plan Q

For those of you who don't know, we have moved back to LC. We have had a pretty tough year with the house not selling and the move. We rented it to someone short-term and moved to Walker with Brady. Well, we just didn't know what to do next. We were living in an apartment with our wild family of five. I missed work and didn't love our living arrangements. So Brady and I discussed our priorities and decided that we wanted to be back home in our house and that I needed to go back to work. So we made an overnight decision and did it. The kids and I are now staying with my parents until our home is no longer being rented (we are thinking December). Brady is going to travel back and forth until we are lucky enough to have him back for good (we have no idea how, when, or where, so please pray). I moved Jack back to his old school with me and was lucky enough to get Camille into school twice a week. My mom and mother-in-law are helping with Henry and Camille. I am starting a first grade leave position tomorrow until the end of October and I will continue to sub until I can get back on full-time at my school (another thing we are praying about). We know that "this too shall pass" so we are holding on and keeping faith. I am so thankful to have such a supportive family that is willing to take us in and a husband that is willing to do just about anything to make me happy.
Jack restarting Kindergarten.

Camille starting school. Good Luck teachers! Luckily she has Jack's old teacher who loves us:)

Oh Laurie, I'm so sorry. It must have been hard being away. So glad you're back where you belong. Hey we'll be in LC the 12th. I'll give you a call.
