Dominican Republic, Nicaragua and Texas in her first 5 years of life!!
The word MOVE brings about scary thoughts of distance and loss.
We have all been through it. We have all learned to deal with it. We all must learn, in our own way, HOW to deal with it. Sometimes Remembering with pictures makes us cry, but it also helps us see how God has protected us and blessed us beyond measure. Crying is not bad, sometimes we need to express our emotions through tears.
