Catching up...
Catching up... The last 7 months have been a whirl wind. An not in a bad way. I've flown to my heart twice in these past seven, and my heart has flown to me. While we wish we could spend more time together in person, we understand the distance keeps that from happening. But it doesn't mean that we aren't spending time together. Skype, phone calls, text messages, emails, photos, cards, letters, presents.. Everything we can think of to show each other that we love one another. And not just one another, the children as well. On New Years just after midnight AZ time, I gave her something more, a promise and a ring. A promise to come back and ask a bigger question. A question that will change both of our lives and the children's as well. I've received my tax return, and have started making measurements. I'll be adding two bedrooms, a storage room and a living room to the basement for the children. The two babies will have the spare room upstairs, the two eldest will have the rooms in the basement. The office will become a office/arts and crafts room. Things that are in the basement now will not be in the basement much longer. Alot of it will be taken to the scrap yard to be turned into money to be used to repair the mistress. She blew a hole in the front of the block, not that I mind. Means I won't be spending money on track time, and track time is expensive. I'd rather save that money and put it into something more important like the family and the families future instead.
Lets look back to October when Kae was out here. It was alot of firsts for her. She got to see the leafs changing color. Got to experience the sunrise here, got to see all the things (well not all of the things) that I said I would show her. My family wanted to meet her, so instead of doing some of the things I had thought we would do. We went an met them instead. We shared a long drive up the blue ridge parkway, walked a few short trails. She saw where I had taken alot of my photos, next time though, we need to head south to see other things.
Soon though, we will be able to do that. And not just myself and her, but the whole family.
