Two weeks

So a bit over two weeks ago- Nevi and I left Portland for lands unknown. I can't even believe it has only been 2 weeks. Here we are in Asia...living, exploring. Some moments are like complete freedom and others are like we are struggling to keep faith in ourselves and this life change. The transition into a new life is both exilarating and painful. Overall, I think we are doing pretty darn well. We rely on comforts when they present themselves, and we stretch our views~ ideas and thoughts each day. Each of us shows a different aspect of ourselves each day- cranky, stressed, over done, tired, happy, over joyed, brilliant, foggy, scared, comfortable, free, restrained, confused, angry, hot, ever filled with love and appreciation. Devin is working his tail off- long long hours, huge brain work trying to problem solve issues at hand...many hours away from his girls. Nevi swims everyday and that brings her calm...Sarah escapes each night into her book to find quiet amidst all the change and constant motion of an energetic young girl. We are greatful for each day, each experience to see that the world is diverse, ever changing and complex. Today is Devin and my 5th wedding anniversary...10 years together ~5 years married. As he is at work and I am at home...I am grateful and appreciative of my life partner...for all he is, all he does, all he hopes and all he dreams. I love you, D.
