We moved into our new house right before Thanksgiving. Andrew and I have been worried about this move and it's effect on the girls. Our Scottish Thistle home is all they have known and we were worried that the unfamiliar would be unsettling. Oh, how we were wrong! They have had such an easy transition to the new house. It has been such a lesson for us. Our sweet girls have reminded us of what is truly important. We are learning to be more flexible, living more in the moment. Yesterday, Charlotte even exclaimed, "Mom, I LOVE this house," as she jumped through the door. We've tried to make the transition smooth by setting up their rooms first. So, we're in boxes everywhere, but it's an adventure! Andrew calls it 'camping out.' I'm learning to go with the flow and not stress over the piles of boxes. So what if we don't manage to decorate for Christmas this year....we have each other and that's all we need!
Finley playing at our new "Stick House." Charlotte dubbed it this name because the front driveway is always covered in fallen sticks from the big pecan tree out front. I think we'll have some really special memories here....
