Prayers for my father

<< < (5/6) > >>

NTD:
Thanks again guys.

Mike, I have been seriously thinking of moving back home.  The time away has served it's purpose but I think Mackenzie deserves to be around her grandparents, aunts and uncles and such.  Maine job markets are horrible in a good economy though...So we'll see.

Justin Snyder:
Sorry to hear this Nate. I hope you get to have a good visit with your family in spite of concerns for your dads health.

Moving or not is a hard decision to make. I can appreciate your wanting Mackenzie to know her family. My dad died when I was a teenager and my mom died when my kids were very young. My kids never really got to know either of them.

El Destructo:
Nate all of my Kids were raised away from all of their relatives...they got to see them for a week or two almost every year that they were growing Up...but this last Summer We ( both our Sons and my Wife) spent 3 1/2 weeks up in Upper Michigan with Family...first time in 6 years all together....and I think that they got to know their relatives better in this period ...than in all of the other visits combined....If I had to do it all over again....I would never have put myself into a position where I was forced to leave Home...Family is more important than any Material Thing you can work for and Purchase...this is my honest opinion...Have a Good visit...and we will all keep You and Your Family in Our Thoughts

NTD:
Thanks guys.  I appreciate your thoughts on raising Mackenzie away from "home".  If I can find a job with health insurance then we may very well make the move.  A lot of things would have to come together to make it possible but I have to admit I have my own selfish motives to go home.  I miss it too ;)  My priority while I'm there is quality time with my Dad but I think I might pound the pavement a bit and see if I can't make some connections at least.

Thanks again guys.  I'm off to bed, got an awfully early morning drive to the airport.

    Nate I pray all will work out for you, and you can have a great Christmas with your Family, and especially your Dad!  And have a Lobstah for me! ;) ;D
