Let the Adventure Begin!

Well it's official, the sign is in the yard and our home is on the market. This makes our move to England MUCH more real! Yep, I said it, We are moving to ENGLAND!!!! It has been just about a month since we have made the decision to move with E's company to a small town called Runcorn, England for a 24 month engagement and life has become very, very hectic since. How does one pack up their entire life and move it 1/2 way across the world for 2 years?! I mean not only do we have 2 kids but we have 2 doggies as well! Although A.J. has no idea what is going on (she is only 11 months old) A.L. (the 3 year old) is making up for both of them! Temper tantrums, not sleeping, not listening and the occasional peeing in the pants are all ways she has started to rebel so to speak. We started liquidating all of the items in our home that we are not planning on taking to the UK with us or keeping in storage for 2 years and each time something sells or gets taken out of the house it seems as if we have to start the whole process of assuring A.L. that this is OK and we have made this decision to better our family. Yet explaining this to a 3 year old is a little challenging, even when she is extremely intelligent! She doesn't understand why we cannot move her entire house to England so that she can keep her green room and at times we are second guessing our decision but in the end this is the choice we have made. So in 2 weeks we head to England to find a home to house our little family for this next chapter in our lives and we start this new adventure at the end of June. Until then I am sure I will be coloring my hair many, many times as the grey hairs are coming and I don't see the stress ending anytime soon. But, like Grandpa C always used to say, "Were not lost, were on an adventure!" and even though I am really feeling lost these days...Let the AdVeNtUrE begin!!!!!
