Now or Never
Some of the blogger friends are rather surprised about our decision to move to Bangkok. Actually, it’s not being made overnight as over the years, hubby has always tried to look for other opportunities elsewhere, but due to various factors, the plans were delayed or canceled. We had a serious thought about this as things will be easier if we are singles, but with 2 young children, we have to put ourselves in their shoes too.
I told hubby that if he really wants to start all over again in a foreign country, let’s do it now or never. Our kids are still young and they haven’t started school seriously. Justin is in nursery now, and he’s the one that we worry the most as comparing to Isabelle. He has just got adjusted to the new school but he will have to start over again once we find a school for him. I talked to him a few times about changing to another school but he doesn’t like it. He said he likes his big school now and doesn’t feel like changing. But as a parent, I got to be “cruel” in this situation as I don’t want our family to be separated even daddy’s working away. They have been growing up with hubby’s working away a few days in a week but the idea of not having a father there for weeks or months is totally out of question.
Frankly, all of us have to start from scratch especially learning how to speak Thai. Then it’s more like settling down and working on the business in a foreign land. After that, I will only think about what can I do over there, and maybe blogging will take a step back further once we move there for certain. For the coming months, I will be flying over with hubby to settle some issues and looking for a home first. The kids will come along once we “set up a home” and settle things down. It’s not going to be easy, but as time goes, we will be able to make it.

Mybabybay, hubby thinks it has potential, for good or worse, I’m not sure, but it’s definitely one big risky leap for us.
