don't give up on us

you might think we are stupid and i already know we are crazy but after three months of living in nebraska and owning a home we love, my greasy monkey has accepted a job back in texas.
yes, i did say texas. the land of few seasons, lots of concrete and construction and traffic and i won't forget to mention the heat.
but The Lord is taking our journey there. our hearts are being called, but with the shedding of way too many tears. what a {ginormous} circle we have made and He knew what He was doing. i couldn't see it then, but can now. it was always supposed to be there.
its time to pack up our life in this house and bid yet another farewell.

our home is already sold. and after only a two day debate. He made that part easy. it will be in good hands.
the sweat we put into this house, i can now feel pouring out of my eyes. imogen had her very own room for the first time and mirabelle, a nursery. i got to paint. colors that brought joy. and i think a little of rob's soul will be left with the finishing of these floors. three levels and it didn't matter we had to shower in the basement. a playroom all her own and a kitchen we saw potential in. oh, the character of this home and how our stuff belonged in it,
will not be a distant memory
but will be missed.

we were welcomed by friends and accepted and loved on.
and now to have to say goodbye...

but where is imy's favorite place in the world? the place where her little heart brings delight?
a nana and papa's house.
the joy she has and the love she receives there will now be far away again.
we will miss them in the worst way.

prayers are needed for this family and we need your love, support and help more than we have ever needed it before.
