The Journey is Now

Now is the journey. These days of life and children and waiting and patience and missing him and introspection of choices to come. These days find me very much busying myself with the children and library trips. The next meal, the next appointment and so on it goes. Hoping time will fly faster until our family is together again. Yet, I find myself thinking deeply of the life to come, the life on that far away island that haunts my sleeping hours. Excitement, fear and every other emotion wells up until I just go back to busying myself once again.

Ken has begun his job and is getting used to the humidity, quite a change from the desert dryness he's become so comfortable with. The three hour time difference has also been a bit of a change for our phone calls. Today as I write Ken will be moving into his brothers condo until a home can be found for our family.We've found some homes to rent in the highlands which is very lush and beautiful and rural. It would be a 30 min drive to the beach. Ken wonders if thats just too far. I laugh thinking, look how far everything is from where we are now?! How the island must be changing perception already.ha
