We are full swing into our home search. It is becoming really overwhelming. We've been looking at lots of houses and I feel so confused. I really just want to drive up to a house and feel like"This is it! This is where I see our family living."
We've both made our wish lists of what we want and are trying to prioritize. Of course, its a bit of a problem when you want it all and don't want to have to give up anything. We were mainly looking in 2 neighborhoods, and now are looking in one of the same and have added 2 other neighborhoods. Hopefully more houses will come on the market soon.
I feel like we are getting closer to finding what we want, but not quite there. I don't want this home search to overtake all my thoughts, but I can see that is where I am headed I'm afraid.
Of course the kids are pretty easy to please. I asked Barrett the other day how he would feel if he went to a different school for 1st grade and he said" Well, would a get a toy like I did on the first day of Kindergarten?" I said" Sure" And he said" Yeah, thats ok. I'd like getting a toy" And we went into this house that was tiny and the kids both said" Buy it! Buy it! It has a pool!" Not that that is on our priority list, but the kids want a house with no stairs and a pool!
Who knows what is going to happen, but we are both prayerful that we will end up in the right place for us. I am ready for a house that we can feel settled in, a yard for the kids to play in and a place we can call home.
