AMAZING uhhh? We can't wait!!!!!

It's absolutely beautiful. Fireplace, awesome master bathroom, huge vaulted ceilings, beautiful kitchen, and ofcourse the best part...with the equity we have in our place in downtown hollywood, we won't have a mortgage!! So Teddy will work for the fire department and I will try to get the training business up an running until the kiddo's come along, then I'll be able to stay home....

It all sounds too good to be true doesn't it? Well...it is.

Why wouldn't we do this though? In reality, we could move into this house and not have a mortgage, my 'fairytale' that I just shared with you could be life next month. But why are we still here? Why are we living in South Florida? Why will I mostly likely have to work 'atleast part-time' when the kiddo's do come. Why did we have to down size from 2 SUV's to one and a car because gas is out of control? Why don't we just run from the 'streets that raised us?' Why do interest rates continue to lie? Why are property tax's in South Florida more than some peoples annual incomes? Why don't we just choose to live in debt (like the other 85% of America) instead of within our means?

These are all issues that Teddy and I are dealing with right now.

remember: It's not where you live; it's how you live where you live.

Pray for us as we wait, seek and submit to the next step.

(ps~ we are moving, but not to Atlanta...Cooper City)

T,

Hi! Well, I am excited and confused at the same time? :) So, are you moving to Atlanta or Cooper City? Either way, Jon and I will be praying for God's direction in your lives as you make decisions for the future.

Proverbs 16:9 The heart of man plans his way, but the LORD establishes his steps. (ESV)

Be encouraged as you seek the Lord for His direction! XOXO

Well well well...
Point taken.
I love the way you think. I REALLY thought you were moving... I was freakin' out a bit.

I am constantly praying for you both. Please remember this... He is your home. This life on earth is fleeting and only a glimpse of His true plans for us. Just keep walking... HE IS WITH YOU ALWAYS!!!
I love you both so much it hurts!

Now that my heart has returned to its rightful home...away from my throat, I totally get what you're saying. We are all on crack to stay here, but God is doing so much here within the psycho taxes!

I feel ya, dawg. ;)
I am glad the lures of the north have not enticed you out yet....
