Thursday, 6 December
Sometimes, I ask myself are we crazy? We quit our jobs that we both enjoyed, sold our house, took our kids out of a school that was perfect for them, packed all of our belongings, left our close-knit families, said good-bye to fabulous friends and dropped into a place where we know not a soul. Forget not knowing anyone in New Zealand, we don’t know anyone in this hemisphere. Our life in Colorado was more than comfortable. We had everything we needed. I haven’t calculated exactly how many thousands of miles away we are from home, but I can feel that it is far. The distance feels especially far because Liam and Colin have always celebrated Christmas with at least one set and sometimes both sets of their grandparents and a smattering of aunts, uncles and cousins. What are we thinking?
