***A Day in the Life of the Watsons!***: Moving!

This is the only way it would let me post :(

Here it is December, where has time gone. I just realized this a.m. I have not posted pics of our new home, where we moved to in May. I am really bad at blogging now :( Preston is doing great! He did have a cold, but other than that, he is doing well! We are so thankful for that.Missie loves Union Bible Academy. She has moved into the dorm so she won't have to drive 1 1/2 hrs/day and during winter it would have been hard. She loves living in dorm and having her friends there. She is in choir and absolutely loves that and travels when they travel. She is maintaining a B average, and that is great! It was a big switch to switch from ACE cirriculum to textbooks, but she has done very well. We love our home, and spending our first holidays in it! Will post some pics.

Moving!

Most everyone who reads my blog knows that we are planning to move to PA in April.
I really don't want to move. We will be leaving everything and everyone here (we have no family here, but friends) and that will be out of my comfort zone. I so wish we had a holiness school here so we could stay here. It is hard to think of just having our tax refund to move the long distance, get a house for us, pay all of the deposits, buy our meds since we won't have insurance, find drs. for Preston, and it can be quite frightening. Missie is important, and her need for a school is very important and crucial, we feel, but nonetheless it is scary. I try not to think of it alot. I just have to put it in God's hands. Time is running out. We have our refund by the end of Feb. and as weather permits we will move by April, Lord willing, IF my husband can get a job. If he cannot get a job in PA, then we have to make other plans. We are leaving the climate here in SC for the climate in PA which means cold weather and snow in the winter. We have gotten spoiled here. We could move the other direction to FL, but that intense heat is something I don't think we could tolerate; it would take us a while to adjust to that! There was a man at our church from Hobe Sound last year and he said it took him 15 yrs. to adjust to the heat to where his suits wouldn't be soaked every time he went to church. Preston minds the heat, as I do, so I cannot think that is a good idea.

Just had to share my feelings on this subject. We have been here this 2nd time since 2000.

If God could open the door for a holiness school here; I would be grateful. I am willing to help out, if we could live on the property of the school so that Preston could be alone some with me close by, and where I could check on him periodically. But I don't see a holiness school opening here. There was one; the churches around here didn't really cooperate, and they didn't have good, qualified teachers, and people went back to homeschooling. Homeschooling is great, but in our situation, Missie needs to be able to go to school.

Pray for us concerning this matter, if you would.
