Tag: Selling a Home

We just met with the Realtor today to put our house on the market.  We are selling so we can move closer to a Children’s Hospital since Jackson likes to visit the Hospital so often.  Our last experience was enough for us to say that’s enough.  Knowing that this is a temporary situation, meaning that Jackson should grow out of his seizures, we are looking to move closer to the church and the new Children’s Hospital less than 5 minutes away.  At first we were skeptical, now we are starting to get excited about the new adventure and believe God is at work in this.  My wife shared a great post about this here!

Apartment life will be much different than what we expected.  Our first thought was that the apartments would be small, crowded, and if we were lucky, they may have a pool.  We have been home owners for almost 8 years.  So we are use to larger rooms and privacy, plus our neighborhood has a two nice parks and a pool.  Needless to say our expectations were low.  However, we were wrong.  The place we are looking at has pretty much everything we want minus 2 bed rooms, a second living area, and a partial bathroom.  But we gain the use of an indoor basketball court, racquetball court, theater room, workout facility with a children’s play room, heated pool and hot tub, gas grills throughout the facility, and a business meeting room.

It will be different, but we believe that by moving closer, we will be able to provide the care that Jackson needs.  If it means giving up a house to have a healthy child, I’ll take the healthy child any day!  Please join with us as we pray for our house to sell and begin to transition to this new adventure!
