Hello

Hello there. It’s been a while. I missed so much this little place of mine. How are you? I don’t even know if you’re still here 🙂 So many things happened, so many changes in my life. I was surprised reading my old posts and discovering that the last time I wrote was in 2014. Charly was even not born yet 🙂 It feels stange. I am writing you today from my little home in Bordeaux. We moved here one year ago leaving our beloved Lebanon. The situation there was becoming unbearable and it is for the future of the children that we decided to move. Leaving my family, my friends and my home there, leaving everything behind and just shut the door was one of the hardest decisions I took. The first year in France was very hard. But I am thankful now that we made it. Now the children are happier in their new school, they made new friends… and we are kind of settled in our new environment. Life is not easy every day. I miss my family and I miss Lebanon every single day. But I am happier now in Bordeaux. I love my small home here. The people are nice and friendly. The weather is fine. I crochet and sew every day. And I am grateful for the little things. Have to move now… I came to update the shop and here I am writing a blog post :)))) I guess this shop update will have to wait. I am leaving you now sweet friends. Take care, surround yourself with colors, have a little me-time every day and be happy!!! Life is good.

With much love,

Angie

    I am so glad you and your family were brave enough to make this very difficult move. I am so pleased to know you are safe now. I know you love your home country very much, and it would have been traumatic to leave it. I also remember how scared you were at certain times, and you were always in my thoughts whenever I heard about bad things happening. I did not know that you had moved to France. I am relieved to be honest and happy that you are safer there. I know it is very hard to just leave and feel you have no real choice but to do so.

    I wish you all much happiness and joy in your new country and a relief from anxiety and worry. Keep on crocheting and painting and all the other joyful things you do. You have so much talent and creativity. I look forward so much to reading new posts from you but above all I’m just happy to know that you have found greater peace. Thank you for coming back and updating us with your story. Be well, be safe, be happy is my wish for you and all your family and friends – be they with you in France or left behind.
