Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes

Anyone that knows me well, knows that I don't like change.  That may be an understatement.  Some may call it being inflexible...I like to call it stability.  However, there are some changes coming up in my life and, for once, I'm embracing them and allowing God to stretch me in this area. 

For starters, we are moving to Virginia.  It is for lovers, but I'm not sold that it's for me.  Murray's next job assignment is just outside Roanoke and he is already there.  Lila and I are joining him after I finish my last clinical in May.  We are renting an old farmhouse with acreage and cows.  I really think we could be a reality tv show...me. on a farm.  this should be special. 

That leads to the next big change.  I will finish grad school for Speech Pathology in August.  I will officially be done with classes/clinicals on May 27th, but I don't "walk" until August.  Glory, Hallelujah.  I will have a masters +30, but I'm not sure when I'll go back to work.  I'm really liking my early retirement.  I have thoroughly enjoyed being at home with my precious baby girl and I feel so lucky to have watched every milestone.  

Lastly, I have come to terms with the fact that I have a TODDLER.  She has literally changed overnight, as cliche as it sounds.  All you mothers can vouch for this.  I have posted her "monthly" pictures on facebook but haven't put them all together.  I figure there's no better representation of how life really does pass before your eyes:
