We Made It 2011

We made it to Michigan. I don't think it has really hit me that this is my knew home. That this is not just a vacation here for christmas and the new year. I sit here looking out the window at the beautiful snow fall coming softly down and still its hard to believe I am here to stay. I miss my family, my friends, my home. I didn't know what I had until I no longer had it right at my finger tips. That when ever I wanted to hug one of them all I had to do was drive miles down I 25. There is nothing like blood family. My sisters have never been more special to me. My brothers have never been more great to me. My mother has never been more cherished by me. My father has never been more needed by me. My nieces and nephews have never been more desired by me. My family has never been more loved by me. As we said good bye the morning of December 26 my heart felt like it was going to sob out of my chest. I have never experience that feeling before. I couldn't catch my breath. I couldn't stop the tears. I couldn't stop the sobs. But even though it was the worst feeling I have ever had, it was the best feeling I have ever had. It meant that I love my family. Our road trip was flawless due to the Lords favor and we made it. Although at moments it has been hard and there have been more tears, I'm making it. With the love of Adams family, Adam, and the Lord, I am making it better than I expected. This next week will be full of plans for college, jobs and the basement. We are definitely getting settled. I just have to start studying the maps for around here. :)
