As for why I moved, it was to be with my husband (we started dating in 2006, and I moved to Texas to be with him). My mother was saddened by my leaving, as was I. But, she is and always been very supportive and encouraging in me creating my own family. And, sometimes that means being apart from them. In a perfect world, we'd all live within an hour of each other. David would be fine with moving to the Carolinas but the work just isnt there for him.
