It's been 6 weeks since hubby lost his job. He has had some great networking opportunities and even had a job interview. Well the one and only job interview turned into 2 interviews and then an offer! Yeah! RIGHT!
There is only ONE HUGE problem, this opportunity for him will have us moving to a new state. That is so scary for me. How do you make a life decision like that? How will my kids react? Can I leave my career and family for this really great opportunity? I have so many thoughts right now, I can't even explain how I am feeling.
With all of this, I still need to take photos of my kids and just maybe there will be a Happy New Year card instead of a Christmas one. I've been so bad at that lately....photo taking opportunities that is.

it is sooooo hard to step out of our comfort zones into the unknown. trust me, i have done it twice! i pray that you and your husband will make the best decision for your family and that whatever you decide to do brings many wonderful, new opportunities
Wow, that's huge. I hope they gave you some time to think on it.
You better get the pro/con list going. What a huge decision!
Wow, big possible changes. not to be taken lightly. I guess just explore the opportuity more and see what comes of it.
It could be an awesome thing. Is it a good state or somewhere really blah? My aunt just had a move like this. Her hubby got a new job (after losing his, too) and they moved from the mountains of CO after living there since 1990 to Palm Springs, CA. Talk about a change! But so far so good. She says it's weird being somewhere new but they are liking it. I say pray about it and see where God leads you.
OMG! That is a really tough one. Would it be possible for your husband to take the job and rent an apartment to see how he likes it and you and the kids stay where you are and finish out the school year?
I know many people are scared of relocation, but I personally love it.
We started out in Texas 4 years ago....then to Colorado for 3.....now in Kansas. I've loved each place we lived and am grateful for the opportunity to see new parts of the country and expose our kids to change/resilence/compromise.
I think it will benefit our children in life. I know our moves have strengthened our family and our marriage.
My opinion is to go for it! There is a wealth of options, wherever you are considering, to connect. Best of luck in your decision!
As someone who has and probably will live their entire life in one place, a new state sounds exciting. But do think it all through. If it's right, it will work out for the best.
I think you and your hubby are the only ones who can make that decision. I wish you the best of luck. You are in my thoughts.
It will al work out the way it is suppose too... Just think on it and wait for the answer!
good luck with that decision...very stressful but also very exciting. wow, did you ever think you'd be facing this decision a year ago???? life is so strange.
Praying for ya in whatever y'all decide to do.
