"Is this our church in Arizona, Momma?"

While traveling, alot of people ask me what the boys think about us moving. The boys know we are moving to the state of Arizona. They have no concept of how far Arizona is from North Carolina. They don't realize their buddies won't be coming with us. They think their grandparents are moving with them. They think their girl cousin Landrey will be in their Awana class on Wednesday nights. When they ask us about the move, we answer their question! But, for their child-like mind, we feel like less is more and that they will adjust to the move just fine. We know there will be hard times, but everyone tells me that kids are resilient and that my boys will be fine. I'm banking on that! Trusting God to meet my children's needs.

All that to say, when we travel to different churches, they sometimes think that we are in Arizona at our new church! They loved being at Victory in Goldsboro! We all did! I love visiting big churches, small churches and everything in between! I especially enjoyed watching the boys in their children's church! They loved meeting the new boys at their table. The boys kept telling me how much they loved the church! Evan kept saying, "Mom, I wish this was our church in Arizona!"

I've only attended two churches my entire life-- our home church Faith, and then Temple Baptist in TN while Myron received his Masters. These churches are very large. That's all I know! However, I will be moving to a rather small church in just a few months. There are so many benefits of attending a big church and small church and I'm excited to see what "small church" life is all about. I know our boys will love it, and they will be our little helpers in the ministry!

Everyday that we get closer to leaving, my heart starts racing a little more. Leaving my family and friends hurts my heart, but going where the Lord has perfectly placed my little family excites me. The countdown is on!
