You have already discovered a ...Welcome to Texas!! You have already discovered a couple important things. Let me shed some light on the "Love Texas more than life" bit. In 7th grade every child in public school must take "Texas History" where the amazing-ness of Texas only gets more amazing. (at least it was 7th grade umpteen years ago when I lived there!) And, yes there is something truly blessed about being Native to Texas. No matter how many years of my life I lived there, most of the formative years, I was still never more than "Yankee" because I had the misfortune to be born in Illinois. The best you'll be able to do is hope to blend in. Start with practicing how to correctly say "y'all"!<br /><br />The humidity is truly a living thing. Wait until about July 4th and then write about IT again. You may decide by then that it is a beast.<br /><br />Enjoy all the new things that you'll learn, the people you will meet and bless, and the new growth that will happen in your life. You may discover that people who move are a blessing to the "native" types. <br /><br />Blessings on you!!!

WHY NOT? <br /><br />I'm glad you like your new place. I hope we get to visit soon!Bridgetnoreply@blogger.com
