Unemployed!

It has been four years to the date that I have been unemployed!

Four years ago, Todd and I made a life changing decision to put my career on hold and follow his. On October 1, 2003, I quit my job at Bank of America and we moved to Pennsylvania. That decision, and all the ones that followed, have made our family what it is today. It was a tough decision and we thought long and hard before making our final call. Once we thought about it and all that it entailed, we knew that we had to do it. So, we packed up our things, I turned in my notice, and we headed due north of Sharpsburg, Georgia.......never to look back!

I now can look back on it with 20/20 vision and honestly say that it is the absolute best decision that we could have made. We were scared of the unknown, not knowing what to expect, not having family around, no friends there, etc. But we always knew that we could come back home (to Georgia) and know exactly what to expect. A big part of our decision was based on financial motives. However, our family (Todd, Trevor, and I) was the most important factor in making our decision. We knew that we wanted to give our children the best life possible and at that point, that meant us moving away.

Since moving, we have added 2 more Ganns to the clan and we couldn't be happier. Trevor has adjusted well with the moves and with the additions to our family. He is such a flexible child. He is so secure with himself and us as a family, that he just goes with the flow. The move has made us so much stronger as a family. Todd and I have grown with each other and are closer and stronger than ever before. Our family is our life.
