Leaving was one of the hardest things I have ever had to do. Saying “good-bye” and not “see you in a few months” was difficult. I look forward to the vacations we will get to spend in the Netherlands and the future visits we’ll have with family and friends from Zeeland soon. They all hold such a special place in my heart and I am truly blessed to have spent such a significant amount of time there. A blessing in disguise indeed.
I returned to Virginia in early May and anticipated the arrival of Pieter just a few weeks later, who flew in mid-vacation in June. We enjoyed a week at the beach and then shared a few weeks of summer together before he had to return to the Netherlands for work.
Big changes are happening for us as we continue to set ourselves up for a successful future. Pieter will be returning to the U.S. mid-September once his work contract ends. We’ve signed for an apartment, starting searching for jobs for Pieter, and I will (finally) be returning to school in the fall to finish my certification classes! After three and a half years of maintaining an “up in the air” lifestyle, we are thrilled to be moving in a positive direction now and look forward to seeing what God has in store for our future together.
We have been feeling very blessed during this season of our lives- to still be together after all we’ve been through and to now be free to travel together to both of our home countries. How Great God is!
