We have a house. Our stuff is here. So far the only thing I know that got damaged was the boys dresser. It looks like the driver or someone loading the truck stepped on the top and put their foot right in it. Oh well, if that is the biggest damage, we are lucky. After 16 years we haven't had anything major happen. I am writing tonight from my couch in my home. Yes I said home because although there are boxes everywhere this will be our home for now. We are living in a little community of Army housing in a suburb of Boston, about 20 miles from Boston and 25 miles from Worcester (where Brian will be working). The house is small but most the furniture fits, not sure about the extras but we will make it work. The kids have a HUGE fenced back yard as well as a fenced community play area at the corner of our front yard. We are surrounded by trees including two in our front yard and on in the back. We visited one church last weekend that was awesome, kids like it but we want to visit a few others before settling on a church home. The boys have already made friends with the neighbor girls across the street. The other kids are in school. We are liking all the food choices, very reminiscent of our days in Chicago and San Diego. The weather has been in the mid 50's - upper 60's during the day and then 40's at night. This coming week temps are expected to drop down to mid 40's during the day.
God is so faithful and watchful over us. This week Anneliese fell and hit her chin/mouth on a table, cut the inside of her lip. She is no worse for wear. The very next day Rebekah just falls over her own feet outside and scraped up the bottom of her chin. Reuben's skin is looking really clear, he has his scratching itchy moments still. This weekend we will unpack and get even more settled in. Monday Brian goes to work and begins his next assignment.
