Maybe Moving Within the next six months or sooner...Lets HOPE

We've decided that we weren't not going to wait much longer to move. The bathroom we added is nearly finished, and we have to do a few more major cosmetic fixes. After these are done we'll put it up for sale. I don't want to use an agent, I'm pretty sure we can sale it ourselves. I'm scared though, I'm afraid we might do something wrong, and I know its going to be a lot of work. Especially with 4 little ones, church callings, and just everyday life things.
It really would have been financially better to live here 2 more years. I really wanted to put about 35-40% down on our next house. We should have 20% though. We decided that our kids need a better environment. My oldest is getting to the age where he wants to hang out with anyone close to his age and the kids around here just aren't the kind of kids I want him around on a regular basis. The winter months have been easier to keep him away but with it getting warmer he's already asking to go play. The biggest threat is the boy across the street that is in middle school and is starting to act like he's part of a gang. My boys love playing with him but he and his brother (whose older) are getting to old. I think that they might be involved in gang stuff.
Its so sad and scary to look around and see that kids aren't not being brought up in good homes. I went to rent a movie last night. (Fly Boys I really liked it). There was a girl that I went to school with who was a couple of years older. She had five kids and looked to be single. She didn't look good at all. She was swearing and letting her son who looked to be 10 or 11 grab "Texas Chain Saw Massacre". On the way home I thought about how thankful I am for the principles and values I know and understand. I might not always be the best mom, but I know that I am trying and Jeff is a wonderful example to my kids. I've never heard him swear. I'm so thankful that I have him to help me.
He's going to be working super hard to get this house ready. Yesterday he mudded the bathroom, and did some framing. Its amazing to me that he can go down there and just whip up a wall. I would have to read a book and go to a class for a semester to learn how to build a wall. Sometimes when we are trying to communicate I wish that his brain worked more like mine, but for the next few months I am soooo glad that he's got that brain of his. He's saved us so much money with his natural ability to do just about anything he wants to figure out. This is one of things I really love about him.
