You should be here…the bittersweet side of a traveling family
Today is our son’s first day of Kindergarten and I am sitting here crying like a baby.

I don’t know about you but when I hear there is another assignment my first question is…Where are we warehousing? That is quickly followed up by… Asking my husband 100 questions he doesn’t have answers to Anyone else do this? No? Just me then. LOL I know I annoy him to no end but he still insists on telling me before he has all the details. So, who is to blame really? Part of it is the excitement of a new place but the other part is fear that we won’t find somewhere decent to stay. My next steps all involve one word…internet!
