Dreams are coming TRUE!

I've always wanted to be that person that lives by the ocean, can look out their front window and see the waves, hear them crashing on the sand and feel the sunshine on their face... I've wanted to be that girl that can run on the beach in the morning, play in the sand in the afternoon, take a walk in the ocean breeze at night with the love of my life.

Well, it's just becoming so real. 

Hubby got offered a job in Tampa!
We are keeping our fingers (and toes... and anything else that crosses) crossed. We really, really, SO BADLY want and need this job. We are just waiting for a few things to go through and see if the company picks up the contract. Don't ask... I don't get it either. Gov't jobs are confusing!

So my dreams may become reality all too soon.
I am nervous, anxious, excited, sad, happy, emotional, overwhelmed... all in one. Imagine that, the life of Kaila EVERYDAY. 

I have always been a homebody. Grew up in a relatively small town, same town my mom grew up near, my dad grew up in, my step-dad, grandparents and everyone I know grew up in. We have family spread out in every corner of the little city we live in and more areas throughout Michigan. It's always been a tradition to go up north to the cabin, go to the lake for Holidays and go camping. It's never heard of that someone in the family moves away... until I moved to DC with Dan a couple years ago. My family was sad, I wasn't married... I was newly pregnant and I couldn't handle being that far away. So, I came home. 

I really didn't think I could ever do it again. 
I decided to stay in Saginaw.
I got a job, started making good money and felt like I was going to feel at home here. 
I don't... 

My family is here. My friends are here... those that are few and far between (but, I am so thankful for the ones that I do have! Love you ladies!!) I think that I am starting to realize that my daughter needs a good, safe(r) and more stable future where we can grow, she can grow, we can provide for her and she can fulfill her dreams with a more optimistic place.
