Peter beat me to our anniversary post. We moved down here a year ago today. We'd never been to the Charlotte area before, and as we drove by the city and all the tall buildings, it really hit me what we had done. How could I move to a place I didn't recognize? A year later, I still probably couldn't pick out the skyline, but I love it here. I really love it here. I was so afraid that everyone would be super southern, asking me which church I belonged to, saying "Bless Your Heart" all the time, all extremely conservative, and I'd be the freak in the mix. And I've found quite the opposite. I may not fit in as perfectly as I did in RI, but there are so many people like me down here, with more moving down every day. It is a great place to raise a family, the weather is awesome (what a year to not be in Boston!), and we have an awesome house. I am so happy, I can't express how I feel. This was one of the hardest things I've ever done, moving down here. I was so scared of it all, terrified I was making a huge mistake and messing things up not just for me and Peter, but for the most important person ever, Andy. I'm so glad I took the risk.

In other news, I want to clear up something from my previous post. I'm NOT pregnant. Just really tired. Sorry to anyone who wants me to be, but we are very far from taking that leap again. One day....
