It's funny to think that ten years ago I was a newlywed. Spending my first morning as somebodys wife. Officially Mrs. Hancock. No longer signing Holt on every check or other document. It really was a strange new world. One I hoped I'd like.
Gladly, 10 years later, I'm still happily waking up somebody's wife. Thankfully, I still like my husband. And I'd do it all over again.
The last year has been full of challenges. Two military school courses that took Nathan (and us one time) away from home for two weeks. An across the country vacation that turned into a "HEY! Let's move there!" idea. A trying time when we told family that we had decided to move 1500 miles away. Then the packing of our house. Oh that was NOT fun! We literally had no idea where we would be living once we got to Louisiana until two days before the truck got to our house to pack us up! We will forever be grateful to friends who let us rent their house while we got ours situated. It was kind of tough living like hoarders with boxes packed to the ceiling in places for 7 months. But we're moved into our new home now and couldn't be happier. Life has settled down and it's become easier to just be us. The kids are all doing better than imagined and Rebekah is starting to talk with a sweet southern drawl.
I'm excited to see what the next year holds. Hopefully Rebekah will enjoy her Pre K. Sam will be beginning second grade. Katrina starts High School. Nathan officially begins his Masters Program in the fall. Hopefully the embryo transfer will work and I'll be able to bless S & B with a beautiful baby.
