Day 7-31 Days of Being New--Expectations

one of our many random stops

Three years ago we traveled across the country with Stafford.  It was fun because we got to see so many beautiful places. We had two weeks together and it was relaxing and refreshing. We thought we knew what we were doing when we planned our two week trek from Washington to Illinois. 

Wrong. 

Three kids is not the same as one. Just in case you were confused.

We quickly learned we should basically have no agenda and no expectations other fuN getting from point A to B each day. We stopped a lot. We played at many a midwest playground. We searched for hotels whenever we had cell phone service. We relaxed and enjoyed being with our kids and making memories.

Now that we are here and unpacked I'm struggling to control my expectations. When will we find a church? Are there any good schools? What will Peter's job be like? How soon can I take a trip to Tacoma??? 

Praying God will calm my worries and keep my focus on Him!!
