Through the Clouds, Over the Sea, to Marrakech We Go...

After a furious deliberation, many tough decisions, and a captivated imagination, we have decided to move our family to North Africa as I have accepted a teaching position at The American School of Marrakech in Morocco.  As hard as the decision was to make, once this opportunity presented itself the move was inevitable.   We have decided to make this move for reasons that are perhaps too complicated and personal for a blog, but ultimately, the world has become our playground-- not just for us, but also for our children.  This blog has multiple purposes. First to share with those that we love that we are temporarily leaving behind; our family and our life-long friends-- one of the many reasons this move has seemed nearly impossible.  Our love for each of you will not vanish as we travel over the sea, but it will strengthen through the distance.  Second, for our children.  While both kids are young, experiencing life outside the United States at such an age may be a distant memory.  We plan to document our experiences, growth and life in Morocco and our travels through other countries to turn into a book for our children to enjoy as they grow older.

Those of you who will be following our blog-- we hope you enjoy reading about our adventures.   

Cheers to seeing new landscapes, developing new eyes, and traveling becoming our silence but creating us into storytellers!
