House for Sale.

It’s true, we are selling our house. It’s all happened very quickly. It’s a long story so I’ll try to shorten it. The move is good, in fact it’s great! We were given an offer we can’t refuse. People we know from our church contacted us and asked us if we’d be interested in buying their house. It’s a large family home with a full recording studio in it! When we saw it we couldn’t believe that we could have it, it just seemed to good to be true! We met with our real estate agent the next day and our mortgage broker. We found out that we can make over $100,000 on the sale of our house in just 2 years and we got approved for the mortgage, which is hardly more than we are paying now. We’ll be saving by using our studio instead of renting studio space all of the time, in some crazy way we’ll actually save money moving to this bigger house! Plus Chris will completely have his own business! Like I said it sounds to good to be true, but it isn’t. In my world that’s called a “God Thing”. Yes, we have the stress of moving, selling and packing, but I love having a big project to work on and something so great to look forward to. This is what’s best for my family. Chris can work so much more right from home, and the house is a great deal and is in a fantastic neighbourhood. The view is incredible and the property is on a cul-de-sac street and backs on to greenbelt. We feel so blessed and can’t believe that this could happen to us, especially during such a crazy time. It’s like an answer to prayer that we weren’t even praying. God knows the desires of our hearts and knows what’s best for us. The other great thing is that there is an –in-law type suite, where my best friend Lizzy will be living. She’s been helping us like a live-in Nanny, she’s a real God sent as well. We love her and don’t know what we would do with out her!!
Please pray that our house sells as soon as possible and that we’ll be settled into our new house by Christmas, before my radiation therapy would be even better, and even though some may think that’s impossible:) Nothing is impossible with God!!
