Something Has to Change

So we have a HUGE, life changing decision that we need to make. We haven't had to face this kind of decision before, and in the grand scheme of life it's probably not so huge. But in our life thus far, it's Big!

A couple of weeks ago we found out that I have at least one symptom of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). Basically what it means is that we're going to have a hard time getting pregnant on our own, and will probably have to have fertility treatments. At this point in our life we aren't in the position to afford to have a baby. I know, I know, we'll never be able to afford to have a child. But we really can't afford it right now. We're barely making it as it is with just the two of us.

Now that I've grieved over the fact that babies aren't going to happen for us right now, I'm realizing that life is pretty blah. If we don't put forth the effort to make a change in our life now, this will be our life forever. Struggling every week to pay our bills, and not able to afford the things that are important to us.

God opened my eyes last week that the change that needs to be made will more then likely include us moving away from Ohio and the safety net that surrounds us. Of course this is thrilling to Marshall as our main option is to move to Florida. We already had plans to travel to Florida next month, so while we're there we're going to go to Gainesville and check into what it would take to transfer to the University of Florida.

Surprisingly, I'm actually excited about the possibility of moving. I don't know what God has in store for us, but I'm getting excited that there are options out there for us to live a better life. Please be praying for us as we seek His will for our life, and what He wants us to do next!
