Like many people, I am going through the motions, but I simply feel too unsettled to really feel the extra peace and joy that Christmastime brings. As many of you know, we bought 2 homes in Kansas and have been in the process of transitioning to Kansas. We were in the process of widening doorways, adding bedrooms and building ramps when we learned that our new community's school will be closing. As a result of the closing, the kids will be bused to a school with three unconnected buildings and many steps. (I cannot even get into the office or lunch room.) The buildings require frequent trips outdoors to get between buildings and this setup will not work for three of our children. We are researching our options including out of district placements which Kansas allows, but so far no district has committed to taking our whole family. Due to these situations, our Kansas house is not home; our Neosho house is not home and the Ava property which does still feel like home is too far away to visit regularly.
Please be praying for us as we try to ensure that Kansas is the right place for our family before we complete this move.
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you.
I do not give to you as the world gives.
Do not let your hearts be troubled and
do not be afraid. ~~John 14:27
