Start of a Reality

April 2nd 2012 is the first working day for Richard at Morgan Stanley Singapore. And yes, we are living in Singapore for good right now. We decided to go back for good early in December, and so we packed our things, did some garage sales, did a lot of cleanings and donating our stuffs, threw away some stuffs. It was a bittersweet moment as we decided to leave the US after ~8 years living there, leaving behind our good memories and friends, but we are excited for the journey ahead.

It was a tough decision. At that time, we had no jobs secured in Asia and so we had no certainty of where we will be. But we knew it was our time to go back to be closer to our family & after we've done our logical assumptions of pros and cons of living in the US vs. Asia :P . Off we go to our home land, Indonesia, on December 16, 2011 trusting in God fully that He will lead us next...

And now looking back for the past 3-4 months, we are so grateful through our struggles and unseen plan, God graciously gave my hubby a job in Singapore. We knew it was God's perfect timing. This job requires my hubby to work long hours, I am sad in a way that we'll have a lesser time together but happy for him that he found a job that he wanted and thankful for God's providence for our family.
