Mrs. H, I'm sorry about your house. I understand how you feel about it, it was your dream home, a house full of dreams for the present and future. It was a home where your brought your babies home to raise them in a loving environment. So many memories...I know you don't want to sell it and w/today's market, it may not sell for quite some time. Any time you are "forced" to move, it's harder to accept.
From what you've posted, the new place will be smaller and very little yard for the children to play in. Will they still be in their school district or will they need to attend new schools?
As for JA, I'm very pleased to see that he brought himself over to work in the yard. I guess he realized that it's quite expensive to have someone come do the work that he should be doing himself. Rather bossy, isn't he? Just ignore him and continue doing the things that you know you need to do.
Please take care of yourself and those adorable little boys.
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
