Luckily, life has settled down for Maya and I in this past month. She is doing MUCH better at school. After many frustrations and setbacks, she is starting to thrive. She has friends at both school and her after-school care. She has moved up a level in math. She enjoys her music class. While she still has some rough mornings, we're getting used to our new life.
Of course, now I'm the one trying to make new friends. I've met a lot of new people and hope to continue building some of those relationships. But it is hard. Thank God for Facebook and Skype! I'm still able to talk to friends and family back home.
Joel and I are doing well so far with the separation. We talk every day. He'll be here in two weeks and will be staying for two weeks. Maya and I are both excited to see him and spend time with him. He's here over Halloween, so we'll all have fun trick-or-treating together. Maya and I willl be flying home for Christmas for about 10 -12 days.
So, life continues to move forward. Maya and I try to do something new each weekend (last weekend it was hiking, today we went to a pumpkin festival). I really want to make Colorado our home, so the more we get ourselves out there, the better it will be.
