There is so much to write about settling into our new life here in Virginia. I don't think I can or am capable to write that post yet. Mainly because I don't feel settled. But also, I have so many concerns, doubts, and worries about it all. I try to remember how long did it take for me to feel settled in Seattle? How long did it take for me to have real friends? How long did it take for me to feel like it was my home? How long did it take for me to be truly happy? Looking back now, I think quite awhile. As for moving back to VA, I don't know how long it will take but hope that it will come sooner rather than later. However long this settlement thing takes for myself, I want my kids to feel settled and happy immediately. Today I got a glimpse of it. Note: children - my children especially - are quite amazing creatures and I hope to learn a lot from them from this move.
As we were walking through the parking lot after picking Mae up at school. Mae saw one of her classmates and gave the biggest wave ever. Followed by the biggest, most genuine goodbye EVER. I love that girl so much and her ability to make a new friend immediately. As I said, I think I need to follow my kids lead throughout this whole process.

I hope you feel settled soon. I think once you move into "your" place it'll help a ton! Plus, with Pearson gone everything is kind of unsettled. You'll get there!
