Change is so extremely hard. It would be hard even if your children weren’t upset, and even if you weren’t working WAY too many hours.

I am positive you will move past the key lime pie stage. You can’t do everything at once though!

I have had dreams of whales and of hippos, but never walrus. At least one of those dreams felt to me very clearly as call from the Lord to act on something in my life. I am still trying to find a way to do that and hoping not to have one of those dreams again.

I think I’ve missed something about why you’re moving churches, so I’m not sure what is prompting that. However, we’re struggling with ours. My husband and I are more connected than the kids, well, actually it is more me. But, its a long distance away and I know youth group activities will be so much harder. I want to find another church close to home as my son is getting older now, age 8, but I’m already so involved that it will be hard. You make me realize though that if we are going to move, I need to do it now before the kids get too attached. I know that must be difficult!

Watch this

Instead of swimming with walrus’ you could be dancing with them (I love this video – it’s on my iPod.

Speaking from experience, it is most likely not a good move to let your kids have a foot in two churches. I tried that and they are still struggling with fitting in at the new church. (For what it’s worth)

Walruses would be fantastic cuddly swimming partners, assuming they’re friendly. I hope you do get some rest, dear!

My oldest daughter didn’t like leaving our old church, but she’s made a lot of friends at the new church and loves it. She still visits the old one with her grandparents sometimes, so she gets to see those friends occasionally, too. There is a couple in our church who switched churches last year, but their two teenagers still go to our church without their parents. I also know lots of families who have made a clean break to a new church and their kids survive just fine. I’m sure that if you do what God is leading you to do, God will take care of your kids.

It’s three in the morning, and I’m sitting here wondering if we have the ingredients for key lime pie. YUM!!!
