Can you imagion how we felt when we came here?
Not knowing anyone, not knowing what we would find?
Or where to go even.
Because the house that we could move into was only for 1 month.
The realtor we met online is a great person, he and his wife are very special to us.
Without them we really would have been lost.
We found a little place we could rent.
By talking to people in the bus, we just had to try and hopefully someone knew someone...well you know.
So here we are, in Swift current andso far things have been good.
I still look back over my shoulders.
I still feel like something bad is going to happen to us again.
And it is really hard to let my gard down, hope thats the way to say it.
You see, In Holland we did have alot, and we did have nothing..because what we had wasn't ours.
People gave us things, but when they found out we had to leave, they wanted it all back.
That left us with nothing to sell.
Last week we were talking, Stan and I... and we think alike.
We wanted to buy things for the kid's, like yard toys.
They have lost so much, and we feel bad and guilty.
So Stan placed an add in the newspaper and boy we got alot of phone calls already.
But, we did buy one very nice one.
It looks great and the people we got it from are so nice.
They told us to come and get it so we could set it up.
But our money is a little low right now.
So we asked if we could get it next week.
And you know what they said????
We will bring it and you can pay us next week. (we have no car)
Isn't that nice???
I am so surpriced about how the people are here.
So kind and helpfull.
And I almost feel bad again because I have nothing to give in return.
But Stan and I are so happy and Emma is crazy about the swing set...she loves it!
Swift current was a huge gamble for us, we had no idea what we would find.
We didn't have anything when we came here, and look at us now!
We have a nice little home, and a swingset for the kid's!
Life is great here... it really is.
This really was a turning point.
