RE: [Blog] Together, Together, Together

Lol - thanks for the reply. Yes, we've heard stories of people moving who were not really together in the decision and how it basically destroyed their marriage. I have a friend here now actually who is separated and she can't return home because her husband won't leave and won't let her leave with the kids. It's really sad. Yeah, my husband (also named Ben) had brought up moving in the past, but I blocked him out, so he just started doing his own research. At the point he told me about it, it was to open up the conversation, but I was still being stubborn about talking about it for months! When the time was right, it actually felt good - I just had to give myself permission to be okay with moving. It was easier to say that there was no way I was going to move, do that to my kids/family, etc. than to actually consider how life would really be that different if we moved. It all seems so weird now to think that I KNEW it was not going to go well, but it has been really good so far. It's so good that you guys are strong and on the same page. It's a blessing to live life together! I can't imagine the alternative...
