We have to walk through Nathan's bedroom to get to ours. On the mornings Steve rides his bike to work he sneaks through Nathan's bedroom around 4:45 am. This morning Nathan woke up. Sometimes he goes back to sleep, but not this morning...at least not until 6 and by that time I was wide awake. So, after a very difficult morning-after-halloween battle to get the big kids ready, and a bout of ongoing (and growing) uneasiness about Daniel's school I stood over my kitchen sink and got a little teary during my plea to God to get us the heck out of this house! Several unknowns and obstacles stand in the way of this. The least of which is the fish that I keep hoping will die before we get the house ready to show because we need to move the tank and there is no place else to put it.
The fish died this afternoon. Amen.

Love how you find praise within the mess. Trust your instincts about school.
ReplyDeleteI actually burst out in laughter reading the end. I feel your pain. Who knew it was possible to completely out grow a house so fast. Or that the great school district you moved into would be put on probation the year you put your kids in school. You live you learn. Good luck I hope you get to sell your house soon!
