Still Trusting

This week started hard. Thomas left for camp Monday morning and I took Ben and Carson to VBS. 

I had that empty nest feeling... You'd think that it would be an appreciated break after being in an apartment for 2 weeks. 

I've always loved having the boys around. Not that I don't want them to mature, grow, hit milestones, but I love breaks and summer and having them home. Don't get me wrong, there's moments I want to lock myself in a closest with some phish food and a good book, but I look at the grand scheme of things and it freaks me out how short their time at home is.

I had plenty to do in the short 3 hours they were in VBS. There's so much paperwork when moving... the house, the schools, the bills, the cars..... Never ending! It WAS very nice to do all that without 3 kids in tow. 

This week we met with environmental health. They were very helpful and told us all that needed to be done to get the septic up to code. We then conveyed that to the seller and at first, we didn't know if the seller was going to get it all done in the time frame set up on our contract. We have until July 1st to cancel our offer. We wanted to be sure he was going to get on top of it before this time. Then they have until July 30th, our close date, to get all the work done. 

I went to register the kids for school today and they would not let me without a permanent address. Which we do not have one at this time. Currently we have the apartment until July 31st. The lady told me to come back on the 31st with the paperwork from closing and they'll register them... They start school August 3rd... Cutting it a little close. Also, our stuff is set to arrive the 3rd.... It's a little stressful! 

After leaving the school, I had anxiety. Why is it so hard to just BE in this time? Tim sent me a text that was very encouraging. We agreed to just let it be and trust.... Again. :-) We know we are taken care of. We just need to trust. We remind ourselves daily..... Trust. About 4 hours later we got an email from our realtor passing on information about the progress that is being made on the house. It was so encouraging. It was such a blessing. Perfect timing. We would have been ok not knowing, but God is taking care of us.
