I know how you feel We're applying too, and have been weighing all the pro's and con's. Still we're so excited we don't know what to do with ourselves. The kids are ready to start packing NOW! LOL I've lived all over the US, but have never been outside the country. DH has never lived anywhere except right across the road from where we live now. Big, huge change for him. We're doing our part, praying about it and letting God take care of the rest.
