WHY I LOVE LIVING IN MARYLAND

It was about a month ago, that I posted about how wonderful and ideal it was living in PA, well since then I have had some wonderful experiences with neighbors, friends, and community living here in Maryland.

I will start with neighbors, Katy started playing with a little girl around the corner and about 4 house down. They pretty much play everyday weather and schedules permitting. I have also gotten to know her parents and some of their neighbors. They have invited us to a 4th of July party and another BBQ! The mom's walk in the evening and after I recover some will join them when I can.

MG and Katy's school is just a wonderful and loving place! I am so glad I have gotten to be apart of that school family. To save the big long story, we have decided to home school the kids next year(that can be another post). Anyway, they have really reached out to us willing to work with us, have helped us and have offered their full support.

Friends here, what can I say? Just as golden as the ones in PA. Going through these surgeries(again that is another post) I have be given their gifts of love and friendship, kind words, encouragement, support, and let's not forgot the meals and one beautiful basket of fruit! I have been able to stay positive, my faith has been able to stay strong and focused and through them I have felt the love of our Savior. I am not alone.

I wouldn't have wanted to be anywhere else.

Oh thank goodness, things may be looking up for you in Maryland after all. Still hoping for you folks to cross the state line again, but happy for you in the meantime.

Hugs!
