Confusion

All is good in Katy.  No complaints about Katy, the neighborhood, our church, friends or anything in genereal.  OK, maybe the electrical bill lol, or taxes.

My REALISTIC complaint is, is that I miss home.  I miss living in Chicago.  I have a beautiful home, great friends, and all a person could want.  What is wrong with me I wonder???!!!  My kids are happy.  Jimmy cries a lot more than Maggie about living in IL.  He wants to go by his friends, grandparents, cousins, aunts and uncles etc.  I can understand that.

What is comes down to is family.  We have friends in both places and could not ask for better friends if we put effort in and tried.  They are top notch!!  Nothing less.  Our home is beautiful and what is considered our dream home.  However, it is a home.  I would give it up to live near family and get a smaller home in a cute town with good schools in an instant!  Just give me the go and I would. 

I would visit TX often, just as I do IL.  However, I am waking up now, because this is all one big dream........

Back to reality.....

The kids are great and adjusting well.  Jimmy graduates preschool this week and is so excited.  Jimmy and Maggie both have their end of the year Spring Programs and parties.  It is hot outside, so we go out mornings or later in the evenings.  Makes it much easier.  Jimmy is in swim lessons and both of the kids will be in Summer Slam at CrossPoint for 2 weeks.  Then it is off to IL for a month and a half.  We are all so excited.  Rich and I will also be celebrating our 7 yr anniversary.  Life is not easy but I could not imagine going through it without Rich.  We are unique, funny, and love to laugh.  For me that is perfect.  I love you Rich.
