Where am I and what am I doing?

Just went through all the kids' artwork from previous days and WOW they had done SO much. Leaves me wondering where I am these days. Somehow I thought my life would have more sustenance. Instead, my kids are friends with apartment kids from broken families, we are living in an apartment in a school district we love but could never afford to buy a house in, and when we go to visit Cali my kids beg and beg and beg us to move there.

What has my life come to? I ask myself.

Back in 2007 we built a house. And then didn't move in. Lately I've been full of regret about that decision. I looked back in my blog and realized three months after we signed the contract to start building the house we started one of our most difficult times in our marriage. And, somehow, I realize if we had moved into that house maybe our marriage wouldn't have lasted. Still, I am so ready for a little more room than this 2 bedroom apartment. I am ready to have a place to call home.

Whether it be in Santa Cruz or here.
