House Hunting!

Ugh. Over the last 5 years I have moved 11 times and now... we have to move again! Making this, number 12. I hate moving! It would be so much better if this move was going to be our final move and we would be done but nope! Not an option now so I just have to suck it up and move on! Needless to say, I have a fun story that comes out of this that has to do with my little guppy, Jude.

Today he and I had a full day of errands, lunch dates and other meetings which I dragged him all over town for. One of our stops was to look at some nice apartments that could potentially be our next home.

Side note: I have only been looking for the last 24 hours but when I get into something like this, I don't stop until my goal is complete so by this point, I'm exhausted.

We pull up to the complex and we are greeting by a very nice lady which my immediate thought was that she was just trying to sell an apartment to me which is why she was so nice. As we move into her office she boldly states that notices his fingers are different. I was a little taken-aback by this because most people dodge around or wait for me to bring up his perfect little hands and toes. She on the other hand dove right in! I of course tell her in a sweet voice that he was born with ABS and I explain all about what it is but how we are fortunate with how it affected him. Meaning, it didn't take his arm or leg or hurt him even worse.

After I tell her about this she continues on to ask questions and wonder about surgeries and how he will do growing up. I just want to say, I was almost in tears with how we were talking. She was so very sweet and encouraging through the whole situation. Most people ask and after I explain they want to move on, almost as if they are uncomfortable with the situation. This lady? Nope! Pressed on hardcore. Enough that I was able to tell her how we specifically prayed for his fingers and toes and were upset at God on why he didn't grant that. Come to find out that she is a believer too and that leads on to a whole other conversation!

All I have to say is that as much as I hate looking for a new house/apartment, this made it just a little bit better. Almost makes me want to live there so that I can talk to her all the time!

I just wanted to share this story because even in the crappy situations in life, believer or not, there's always some good either in the situation itself or right around the corner. The odds of us moving to this apartment are slim but it's still nice to know that there are people out there who actually care and are sweet when it comes to lucky fins.


Oh! I finally added his 5 month photo with dad :) Working on uploading his 6 month one before he turns 7 months! Life is crazy!

Just wanted to add an extra photo and show him off :)

Have a Blessed Day!
