Please pray for my young family

[Pisio]

We make one year on Sunday, and we are getting ready for a huge change. I am going back to school in the fall of next year, and we are packing up, leaving Hawaii and moving back closer to my family (my parent’s basement to be precise). We are trusting that God already has the details worked out, but it is still real scary.

Thank you all in advance.

In Christ,

Pisio

Aloha Pisio!

We lived on Ohau for two tours of my hubby’s career! Are you island hopping or back to the states? I always dreaded the moves to and from “the rock”, but I loved it once we were there! Now that fall has really set in here, Northeast Main Land, I am getting cold!!

So, if it is back to the main land, then carry a sweater! Sometime in late Feb, I really start missing Hawaii and being able to get outside everyday, even in the rain. I chuckle about how I would be freezing on those cold 65 degree winter nights. I also miss Kalua Pig!

Anyway, there is no point in stressing over things you have no control over! God has a plan and there is a reason for all of this to happen! Be extra patient with your newlywed spouse who will have to adjust to being in your parent’s home. It is very difficult having two families under the same roof when one has been away from the flock for so long. Say lots of prayers, a daily rosary meditation would help with your focus and stress.

Good Luck on the new school year! Shaka!

Pray and Trust that what God has in store for you is better than you could have ever dreamed. I know it is hard to go back to living with parents after you have lived on your own, keep your eye on the goal…the education and that making the sacrifice of living back at home will afford you that opportunity. I wish that had been an option when I went back to school! I was a single mom with 3 kids and no child support when I went back. Mom lived 850 miles to the east and I went to a jr college then got offered full scholarship 200 miles west(Private Catholic College). I had to turn it down because I couldn’t afford to move and I had 3 kids to consider, with just getting them into schools I liked (Catholic schools). One of those years my total income was $755. Imagine that!!! I survived with 3 kids in Catholic School (on grants) while earning that little and I managed to keep a roof over our heads! Granted we ate alot…I mean alot of generic soup during that time. So thank God you aren’t me and take advantage of the opportunity in front of you!!!

Praying for you. This can work as long as everyone is able to compromise and give the other people privacy where necessary.

Our DD, SIL and three grands all live under one roof with us. We made the decision to add to the house and stay together after lots of prayer and discussion. For us it seems to work. Yes we have times we would like the other to go away, far far away . But, those times are mostly few and far between. This arrangement has allowed my DD to be a stay at home mother and me the freedom to work outside the home now.

But, we have six bedrooms. Two large living areas one on each floor. Wrap around porches on two levels and a huge yard for us to get away from each other in. The place we all gather is the kitchen (only one LOL) and the family area it is attached to. This has been perm for six years and was temp for two (they still owned another house about 20 miles away.)

DD home schools and has most of the kitchen duty (just wish I had taught her to cook better .) The rest of the work is split between us all. They guys keep the yard and house equipment in order. We women keep the inside as neat as seven people can let it be. The children are 22 months to 8 years. The adults make most of the mess .

So we will be praying for you and your wife as well as the family as a whole.
