Why?


I think my favorite question so far to our moving has been Why? Why are you up-heaving your family and changing your entire life? Why? So many people have asked, why couldn't he get a job closer? Why would you leave Las Vegas? Why would you move to a cold place? Why? Why Why Why Why?

My answer is simple, I will follow Luke wherever he goes, and God is sending him to Pennsylvania.

For those who don't know Luke and I have been together since High School. We were sophomores in high school and met as opposing debate team captains. We battled it out in several debates and we were intrigued with each other.  18 years later, here we are today.

For our entire relationship we have lived in 3 places in Las Vegas. Throughout our entire life he has always put me first. He always made sure I was comfortable. Everything that happened, he made sure I was first. When I wanted to shine at work, he supported me and helped me as much as he could. When I wanted to be a stay at home mom, he worked tirelessly to make that happen. He sacrificed and drove a car without ac for 5 years, 45 minutes to work in the Las Vegas desert, just to make sure the kids and I were safe and in a vehicle with AC.

At first, I thought I needed to have this long drawn out answer. Explaining our financial situation, huge house bad market issues, bad job, and then I realized I only needed one answer. Because I am in love with my husband.

He truly is my partner in life. This man has made so many sacrifices for me and my kids. He has worked hard to provide and dug in deep. He worked long hard days enduring many things that made him unhappy, and yet came home with a smile on his face for us.

So, Why? Because it will make us happy, and I will follow him to the ends of the earth.
