Wings

So I told you all, all eight of you that read this silly little blog of mine, that today I would let you know about my wings.
I really do not like birds. I never have and they really freak me out if they get to close but I have always loved angels. I collect them and I relate to them and not to be weird or anything, I feel as if I have a few that watch over me on a daily basis. So my wings are angels wings not bird wings.
I will not be working in Show Low anymore after May and that was really hard to accept, but on top of that Jeff had started looking into a new job for himself. He has felt the need to grow and learn and I can't blame him. He needs some new wings.
So last week he accepted a new position that will be giving us both wings. We will be relocating to Mississippi. Yes, back to the south for us.
The girls are torn and Ally and Brody will be staying in Arizona for the time being. Robyn will go to visit with us this summer and then she will decide where she wants to continue her schooling. This is okay, they are both growing up and I know that they are getting their wings.
I look forward to the new area, new friends and the chance to possibly teach in another state. Can I just take one test and get a certificate for all fifty states here people. This will be my seventh move in 25 years and our seventh state. I will miss my friends here, but know that the true friends never leave I am hoping our house sells quickly and putting my faith to work on that note. I am grateful that Jeff will have a new adventure and his wings are growing and I look forward to what our new town has to offer. (THEY have a TARGET). Jeff says that means I definitely have to get a job......
I am in awe of living somewhere with all the amenities. I am going from 3,000 people in our town to over 70,000. I may be walking around dazed and confused for a while.
Oh,yeah, did I tell ya it is an hour to the beach.......
I know, I am just in awe of that fact. All of my life I have wanted to be able to drive to the beach and walk around looking for shells for the day. What bliss that sounds like to me. Read a book watch the waves, etc.
So tell all those that you know to pray our home sells quickly and that my new wings are strong and soarable.
