Homeland Security

Before I continue with the graduation updates, I just wanted to talk about Jason's new job offer. His Chief Deputy at Wise County got a call from the Director of Homeland Security and asked if Jason could come work for them. Under normal circumstances this is a great offer, but it puts Jason in Georgia for training for 3 months and a move for us to Tucson, Arizona for at least 4 years. As it turns out we actually know someone in Arizona (Tommy who we went to school with and his wife and children), but from Tucson they still live about an hour away. Also, Jason's stepdad has lived in Pheonix part-time because of his job, but that's still not near where we would be. And we would have to sell our house in a market that doesn't exist.
I would like to point out something very sweet that has come from this. Jason actually called my dad today for advice. He said he didn't wnat to take my dad's baby girl away from him if that's not what my dad wanted. And in good'ole dad fashion, he just told Jason to weigh the options but that it wasn't his decision. Haha. Funny if you know my dad because even if there is a straight answer to be given, he's never really given me one. He just talks through the thought process with me and then lets me choose what's best for me. Sometimes I just need a decision to be made for me!
Anyway, Jason and I are torn about what to do. It's hard to leave your comfort zone, and with all the good that we've gone through recently we can't tell if this is another "good" step or if it's a step back in the wrong direction.
I know that in the end we will make the right decision, but getting there is the hard part. It's all about the fear of the unknown.
