I read this post several days ago and it has not left my mind so I felt the need to leave a comment. Thank you so much for writing it! It has been our family's dream to move to our little piece of land for quite awhile now. However, life continues to have other plans for us. While we still hold on to that dream we are trying to make the best of where we are even though I too get stuck in a brain rut.<br /><br />I paused dead in my tracks when I read Rachel's words about wanting to someday live in Portland, Or. We moved to Oregon a few years ago and are thrilled to be here but loose sight of this when we get discouraged about buying the land we so want. Now, here is a mom saying she would like to move to where my family resides and I thought, "Why am I not just happy with where I am right here, right now?" Thanks for the wake up call. I needed it! <br /><br />{Hope this wasn't too long of a comment!}Cynthiahttp://brambleberriesintherain.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7574269791828128314.post-22913387363310301592011-06-01T07:14:04.946-06:002011-06-01T07:14:04.946-06:00All these comments make me smile.

I love that my five year old twins and I can go explore museums downtown and yet can hang out at a farm the next day, only twenty minutes the other direction from our home. We've very blessed our children have such wonderful experiences because they are allowed freedom to explore their world. <br /><br />I also relate to Rachael's experience with travel. Travel as much as you can with your kids. It's worth it!Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09367499497954819955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7574269791828128314.post-64471435684132828272011-05-31T11:40:40.021-06:002011-05-31T11:40:40.021-06:00yes. thank-you again for addressing this issue!yes. thank-you again for addressing this issue!Lacey (schoolhousefarm)https://www.blogger.com/profile/10439416651112233247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7574269791828128314.post-36796094544488721152011-05-31T11:27:50.583-06:002011-05-31T11:27:50.583-06:00Lovely blog and lovely post!
