I loved getting those messages! I felt like I was with you - well, maybe not, thank God!, but it still helped.

I don't know why... brought tears to my eyes reading about your journey. Maybe cause we've been there making that huge life change before... can't wait to hear how God leads you guys in this new location! Congratulations!
