I miss you so much too!!
But don't ...Oh Wendi, <br />I miss you so much too!!<br />But don't come back here... you don't really want to. LOL!!<br />I'm so glad there is facebook, and blogs, and email, and skype! <br />This will be my 3 move as well...I keep thinking it's such a sad life we lead...but really, it's a happy one. We get to know some of the BEST people on EARTH, while others get to stay where they were born for the rest of their lives. It all has its pro's and con's, but in the end, I think I wouldn't want it any other way. (And I know neither do you...we are adventurers! ;)<br />Plus, there is something about meeting someone, becoming friends, and the feeling you get when you or them leave, that says you'll DEFINITELY see that person again. Even if you never do, the feeling is there. And it's such a wonderful feeling to live with!<br />Love and miss you tons! <br />-P Patty PBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09040693429763767143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14468282.post-26930503508663623112013-03-07T11:31:07.369-06:002013-03-07T11:31:07.369-06:00Mtn Grl, your mother sounds like a saint.Mtn Grl, your mother sounds like a saint.Wendi Kitsteinerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05515018912328000746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14468282.post-22612143791310651792013-03-07T11:28:51.060-06:002013-03-07T11:28:51.060-06:00Thank you Megs.

None of it is easy- we have had three moves stateside bc of medical issues with our kids. Each place has brought it's own adjustment and learning to redefine myself. Even something as simple as my workout routine gets a new twist wherever we go! I have to re,y a lot on faith, and also the understanding to live in the present. For awhile I resented this, but now realize what a neat gift we as military wives have- to focus on the present because we have no idea what the year may bring! I know our base chapel has a support group for spouses who have recently moved to be area- that may be so etching to look into. I have also found great comfort in the book "faith deployed". <br />Best if luck- congrats on your pregnancy, and I hope the nausea soon goes away...<br />-Meghan Megshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08891841184153535609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14468282.post-40017318441095113712013-03-05T10:42:25.516-06:002013-03-05T10:42:25.516-06:00We too will be moving soon...to Lajes.

While doing some research about the island, (really all I did was some googling..lol) but I found your blog and I read all your posts from about the time you were leaving Turkey. I wanted to experience the transition with you guys while you moved, so I would kind of know what to expect when we move. I didn't intend to keep following your blog, but I feel like I already have a friend on the island. You have been a sweet encouragement to me even from such a distance, and I hope to meet you once we arrive this summer.<br />Prayers and Blessings,<br />Kim Barnard<br />Panama City FLAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14468282.post-38228354200238592452013-03-05T08:04:30.638-06:002013-03-05T08:04:30.638-06:00I was a military child and I never detected any ho...I was a military child and I never detected any homesickness or frustration about the frequent moves from my mother. When we moved moved, we met new friends while keeping some of the old ones. We would stay in touch with each through writing letters (gasp!) there was no facebook, no email, nothing....When we got to see old friends, it was a fabulous reunion like we had never been apart. Plus, when we moved to a new place, it was like a new adventure - explore the area and make friends. I actually wish I had married into the military because it is it's own little world which is tight knit and strong.MtnGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01882656639070055494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14468282.post-27682991087109657162013-03-05T07:12:49.300-06:002013-03-05T07:12:49.300-06:00Wendy, you are right..
