Believe...



As Josh Groban says, "You'll have everything you need, if you just believe." Well, I believe there is a reason we moved here, and even thought I like it so far, I still haven't figured out what it is yet. Things are different here. I really struggle with Church. It is SO DIFFERENT!!!! We are also going through some big changes with our family right now that I blame on being here. It's not easy for me to understand why things have to change, and so I have to find that strength to trust in Heavenly Father. He planned this out for us, but why?



Anywho, here we are at Dollywood on the Polar Express ride. I love this pic! So going along with my heading for this post, I believe....



1. It's better for us to be together instead of when David was always gone.



2. Hannah is SO much better off here. She is more confident and sure of who she is.



3. Because the kids don't have friends right out the front door, they have learned to play with each other. And get along. Shocking, I know!



4. I have learned to look people in the eye and say hi. I have learned that people here are humble, and that I needed to be humbled.



5. I have found out what it truly means to cleave unto your own family. Being further away from my parents has helped me see my own family clearer, and I realize that they didn't get enough from me. There is nothing wrong with being a good daughter, but when you have your own family, they should come first.



So, when I find out if there was a special reason we were needed here, I'll let you know. But for now, just knowing how happy David is, is reason enough for me!
