Last weekend, my family had an adventure that was really nice, but filled with a bit of a scary thought. My husband interviewed with a very big company out in Washington, and the family went with him to check out the area. Are the Breidings ready for a change, a reboot, as my husband keeps saying?
Seattle was an interesting place. There seemed to be a lot to do out there. But, it is gray. We were there for 3 days, and we only saw the sun for a total of about 15 minutes. Can I live in a place that is gray all the time? Can I survive without the sun? Can I survive without warmth?
Luckily, my two kids are hot boxes. They both radiate heat. As long as they like to give me hugs, they can keep me warm. But, when they grow up and get to the “I hate you, Mom” stage, I’m going to be cold and gray. I hope they don’t get to that stage any time soon, and I hope they don’t stay in it long.
I’m nervous. I’m excited. I’m scared. I am doing my best to only think rationally about this. I’m doing my best to stay strong and think positive. I will not bring this family down. I will not hold our family back.
