New city brings new surprises...
So we packed up all our stuff and moved 4 hours away, not too far but for people that were born and raised in one city(though I did briefly move to Louisville on my own a year prior) it was a big enough change for us. We found an apartment, left the house that we had only owned a year, I left my job and Adam transferred. I started to look for another job and eventually found one as a sales rep in a call center for AT&T. I was so excited about it and the pay was nothing short of amazing. I was going to start out making more money than Adam did and he had worked for his company for 9 years! What a blessing! About 2 weeks into my new job some things go down with my sister and she loses custody of her youngest son(she had already lost custody of the other 4). This is a child that I hardly knew and had seen maybe 4 times since he was born. He was 3 1/2 and a total stranger. I had basically cut my sister out of my life years prior and forced myself not to connect with him as I had my other nieces and nephew. It was only through the kind-heartedness of my husband that he actually talked me into taking him in. According to him family is family and it wasn't his fault that this happened. I listened and overnight we were transformed into parents and has it ever been a rough journey since...
