To make a short story long, moving there is a calling for us. This sounds like a far fetched explanation, and before I met God, you would have gotten an eye roll and a snicker from me if someone had told me that, but we know it is where we are supposed to be. I was an atheist most of my life, and faith is a pretty powerful motivator.

Yes, as far as I know, it is a permanent move for us. Who knows, maybe I'll have an opportunity to make some quilts for the orphanage or for some of the street children.
