Yes, we came down for the week so the kids could start to feel comfortable. Well Daniel & Sophie are more than "comfortable", they do not want to go back to NY!

They love their own rooms, they love the parks, & love the other kids as there are so many here. Katie has made progress for sure. She is happy with her big room & big closet. We went to the mall yesterday & she said that the people were so nice in the stores that she couldn't believe it. Where we live in NY you have to hunt down someone to help you but here people seem like they want to help you & are so polite. I was happy that she is trying to find the positive in this. She even found some friends to walk to the school bus with.
We head back Monday & I would rather stay here, but we are still staying in Ny to let the kids finish school. I was having fun here with my new kitchen & own bathroom! I am spoiled now.
