Moving Day

A few months ago Joselin was having problems with her roommate and was about ready to move back home.  However, she got a better job that would have been impossible to keep living out here in the boonies. Instead she chose to move into a hotel that you rent by the week.  She has been living there for 3 months while saving for a place of her own.

Today I helped move her into her own place.  She is renting a cute little 2 bedroom duplex.  I am so proud of how far she has come.  She is a hard worker and has really grown.  She has rebuilt her relationships with her siblings and has really connected with Sarah.  She didn't ask me for money to help her (we would have if asked). 

I went shopping and got her some basics and a few nice things for her new place.  It is amazing how much stuff you have in your kitchen alone.  When all the kids get their first place we typically get the basics; toilet paper, cleaning supplies, broom, dishes, silverware, pots, can opener and such.

It will be interesting to see how she chooses to decorate her place....she looks so happy.
