‘Why don’t you just settle down?’
‘When are you going to stay in one place?’
‘Aren’t your kids missing out on a normal life?’
We hear it all the time…
It’s that time of year again, packing up the camper, Us & the kids say our goodbyes to the friends we’ve made & we take a quick trip to visit family before heading somewhere new. Always bitter sweet.
It’s never easy,
It’s messy, it’s exciting, sometimes sad, & down right annoying af some days. But this is the life we choose. To be with daddy 🫶🏼
As long as he is on the road, we will be with him.
Because he deserves to come home to his wife & kids every night, bc our kids deserve their dad at all their birthday parties, holidays, game days etc.
He’s our rock and I don’t know how I’d ever do this without him , if he were traveling alone while we stayed “home” , I’d be miserable.
So we endure the camper life, which honestly has its perks. Our kids are so incredibly socialized, so privileged to visit all the places they’ve been to, experiencing different cultures, all the “field trips” & luxury vacays, thanks to daddy’s travel job.
And the experiences our kids are getting from this life… you just can’t teach this in a classroom.
They’re learning how to adapt, how to make new friends in new places, how to step outside their comfort zones without fear. They’ve seen oceans, mountains, deserts, little towns and big cities — and every stop has taught them something different.
They know that “home” isn’t a place, it’s the people you’re with. They’ve learned to appreciate the simple things, to be grateful, to be flexible, and to find joy in the little moments — whether it’s beach days, campfire nights, or exploring somewhere new together.
This life may not be traditional, but it’s full. Full of memories, full of lessons, and full of love.
And one day, when they look back, I hope they remember not the sacrifices — but the adventure. 🤍
We don’t have a plan to “settle down” yet, but we for sure are right where we belong, no matter where that is on the map.
The camper may be temporary… but their daddy isn’t.
He is our home — and we are his. 🫶🏼💞
