Easy Come, Easy Go

"Goodbye;
Farewell;
So long;
Vaya condios;
Goodluck;
Wish you well;
Take it slow;
Easy come girl, easy go!"
- George Strait






Right now the past 15 months have seemed like forever, but I know once things settle down in our new home it will just be a short chapter in our lives. Life does continue where ever you let your family, heart, and soul take you...but I have learned some valuable lessons. The things I missed the most in the beginning were the things I learned to live without. And some of the things I thought would still be around when I returned are now gone forever. 'Home of the midnight sun' in June also translates into 'home of the darkness at noon' in December. My spirit is energized by the sun light and without it, life is very difficult for me. Bottoms up to everyone that can live through these Finnish winters year after year.


So this is really it! The finale of 'Knuffin Around.' Many people have asked and requested me to continue writing on our adventures, but for some odd reason I do not think Dallas, TX will be near as exciting as Helsinki. With the boys starting preschool in the fall and me going back to work, our life will be the same as any other suburbian mom out there. Until I am inspired to blog again...this is "good bye," "moi moi," or "adios" from us over here on the other side of the Atlantic one last time to all of you! God Bless and take care.
