So how is this for crazy. We got our orders (insert singing angels), totally surprising orders let's just say we are heading to the beach. Let's also just say I have been totally landlocked for the last 10 years so Yippee. I was soooo hoping to be moving closer to home, and thus starts my crazy story. My husband put in for a cross flow (to switch to a different plane), his first choice was a plane that is pretty much only stationed 2 hours from my family, and he got selected as an alternate (which means maybe, but probably not the plane you want). So anyway, a few weeks ago, we got a call.... we got the plane (or he but in the military, I swear, I have earned a little bit of that, two years worth of deployments, I'm just sayin'). So, we are dancin' he got the plane he wanted, and we were convinced that we were going "home."
So then, we got another call. Apparently the plane that really is only at one base, has decided to set up a new unit. Not anywhere near my family. Seriously? So now I have this new place, I know nothing about, and while I am excited to go anywhere, I have a load of work ahead of me trying to get a program for Cotton in place. So we just basically visit grandma, and show up at the new house. As soon as I posted this on facebook, two of my friends inform me that they have a friend that lives down there (in a totally different plane, and that is unusual), and get this has a kid on the freakin' spectrum. So, whew, feels a little like someone is looking out for us our something;)

You know, I never thought before how hard it must be on military families that have kids on the spectrum. Not just for the kids who have to make lots of adjustments but that parents have to figure everything out new again each time they move! That must be more stressful than all the other moving stuff. But the beach sounds nice. ...
that is great news.. i think ;)
i wonder if you guys have moved since having the kids?
i hope this new home is great for all of the boys.
