We love our home here in Illinois and we will miss our family and friends here, but our hearts are in Alaska. I miss my parents tremendously and have been incredibly homesick. Our house has been on the market for a week now and we've already had interest in it, hopefully we'll sell quickly and be able to move soon.
There are many factors that went into our decision to move, one of them being that Josh is getting tired of all the traveling and I don't blame him. Eight hours of fly time each direction, every three weeks is a lot. The upside of it is that we have enough frequent flyer miles to last us a while. Another factor in our decision is our extensive support system in Alaska. Being alone with Keegan for three weeks at a time can become very stressful for me. That is why it's important for me to have friends like Amrita, who have kids that are Keegan's age and we're able to socialize on a regular (if not daily) basis.
I look forward to our visit to Alaska and seeing my family and friends again.
Love you all!
