My impossible (well, not impossible but quite unlikely:) dream is similar, to live close to my family in Canada...but it isn't so much that I want to really live there, I just want our lives to be so much more a part of each others. It would be wonderful.

The color is gorgeous, and I see only the beauty within, not any perfection of non focus. I can close my eyes and see God's beauty, so beautiful.<br /><br />Now, One day at a time sweet friend.

I want to be a part of my grandsons lives so I would love to move from NY to CO..but I also have an elderly mother here that I help take care of. I pray on this all the time, and hope the Lord will guide us.<br /><Pat @ Mille Fiori Favoritihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08922525910685129822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6941189465556026261.post-21139958648907566002011-07-22T17:29:02.441-07:002011-07-22T17:29:02.441-07:00I have the EXACT impossible dream!

I will tell you, we were transferred mid-dream to the opposite coast and not at all to our beloved south (and son). <br /><br />However, I did ask for a miracle and it was granted. Our house sold, without a huge loss, in a market where only 12 houses were selling in a year. It took 60 days instead of the 366 day average.

Our son has dyspraxia and a specialist has said he has the right to use a laptop computer in school. Now, you have to realise that the education system is very different here in France, and the school is totally disinterested in allowing this. Do we just go ahead and send him back to Flosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18098894367955345944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6941189465556026261.post-57690444247401068752011-07-22T12:40:11.130-07:002011-07-22T12:40:11.130-07:00He holds our hopes and dreams in His loving hands!...He holds our hopes and dreams in His loving hands!
