To Cheltenham...and beyond...

well, things are so different now! Ans so exciting. Lets fill you in. In September David decided that he wanted to return to studying (that is totally the cut down version but thats the result of a long few months)... anyway, we had 10 days before the cut off date to university. So we got on phones, email, letters, everything and we applied to a few unis in the hope we got accepted in time. We did. David is now studying at Gloucestershire uni and his campus is in cheltenham. He got accepted on the friday and started on the monday. Crazy!
Because we had to give a months notice he had to commute for the first month. Expensive doing 2 hours driving every day for a month. however, it gave us time to house hunt, pack, work out our notices at work and do all the bits that needed doing!
So here we are! We live literally in the heart of Cheltenham and we are loving it. We found the perfect house in a perfect place and its big and spacious and lovely. David is sooooo much happier and the boys love it. Although Joshy misses his friends he has settled in way better than we thought. if anything, the move has done him good. He now will feed himself (dont even go there if your thinking 'what, he isnt already), he has only had one tantrum in 8 days, he is loving the space in the house and its fab.
I have to give credit to the one we believe has made this possible. A loving Father in Heaven. From the moment we made the decision to do uni again everything has fallen into place. From finding forms, getting letters we needed, beinf accepted, finding the one house availiable within our price range, finding part time work for david.... everything. We have been very blessed in a time that has been stressful and worrying...and still is as we wait for news on funding! Please pray for us and wish us luck so thinks will turn out how they should! We are so grateful for how everything is right now!
so this is where we are in the world...well in the country anyway :) Lets hope things continue to go well :)
