But you can come back to it. Being back in Garden City has been an adventure in so many ways. From living with my parents to buying our first home, from Joe's unemployment to his opportunity to teach, life in Garden has not been dull.
Things I Like About Living in GC:
1. Living just down the road from several members of my family and dear friends rocks!
2. I really like having my own home. No one cares if I put holes in the wall or that I have dogs.
3. My dogs. I never thought I would be this attached to dogs, and sometimes they drive me batty, but they are great to have around.
4. I like being back in a more rural setting. The attitude here is just totally different.
5. My job has been challenging, but has made me realize that I really BELIEVE in things like early intervention and that the brain development that takes place in the early years can make a difference for a lifetime and beyond.
6. I see city officials at the coffee shop.
7. The coffee shop. Patrick Dugan's is lovely.
8. Living here has made me appreciate my marriage (and Joe) more and take it (and him) for granted less.
9. The snow cone stand! I used to crave those snow cones in Denver. Once I almost made Joe come get me one. From Denver. They're that yummy.
10. Getting to be in the everyday lives of some very special kiddos and their parents. I'm so thankful for the kids in our lives and the parents that share them with us.
