My four kids stood in front of me, bouncing up and down. “Are we moving, are we moving?!” they asked with huge grins. They overheard part of a phone conversation I was having with my husband, and they couldn’t contain their excitement about moving to a new town and starting at new schools. I admit, I was surprised. We have moved as a family several times before, and usually, the kids are … less enthusiastic about moving. I’ll even confess that sometimes they have whined and complained and cried about leaving friends behind or starting at a new school. So, what was different about this move? |

Trauma is a word we hear a lot these days. Often when we think of trauma we think of clinically diagnosable PTSD or a majorly catastrophic event. However, trauma comes in many shapes and forms. In fact, many would argue that we have all been experiencing trauma on a global level since the pandemic. |

I am all for being outside with our children. Most of our best family memories have taken place outdoors. Our son was born at Fort Hood, and while the summers were brutally hot in Texas, I really enjoyed that we could be outside year-round for the most part. In fact, I’ve gotten so used to the mild winter temperatures that I’m not quite sure what I’m going to do when we are stationed in a place where we can’t be outside year-round. |
