In my mid 40’s when I realized it wasn’t healthy to live in more than 20 places, five of them before kindergarten, including a hotel, a camp ground and a few relatives homes, I began to unpack how it affected me. Needing to make changes every few years, never feeling at home anywhere and never being able to “cling” to anything all made sense when I realized the impact of never having a place to call home. Thank you for articulating the depth of the reality.
The love of a good parent is unconditional and knows no bounds. You guys are such good parents and people. You are choosing to be very brave. There is so much to be excited about with a move to a beloved place, a new chapter of life, an expectation of more peace of mind, but it comes at a cost, and not a small one. There will be some very hard moments here and there. Don’t lose heart. I will miss the Mann-Romedawgs a lot. I’m happy for you. I love the idea of not staring over, just continuing. So, carry on, friends. Continue to carve a life of love, care, and compassion. Wishing you all good things. 💛
