So since I can remember, I've told friends and family that I want to move out of California.  But now I'm at a crossroads in my life.  I have a 2 year old and a husband, and all of our family is in California.  But I've always wanted to live in Colorado.  If we move to Colorado, we would have to leave everything behind, and the thought makes me feel kindof selfish.  I guess because I would be depriving the grandparents of their first and only grandchild, for my happiness away from here.  My husband is all for moving, as long as we can afford it, and he can transfer his job.  But as much as I want to go, I want to go guilt free.  I want to know that I'm not dissappointing someone.  I think that moving would be the best thing for our family, because our current situation is not a comfortable one (we live with my in-laws and their 3 daughters, bringing the house total to 8).  I want to give my child an opportunity to grow up in safer neighborhood, a less congested city, and less crowded schools.  I don't think that can happen here.  I want a more close-nit community, not one with houses growing on top of houses.  We will be vacationing in Colorado in the winter time.  It will give me an opportunity to find out what Colorado is all about.  Hopefully by that time, I can talk to the family and see what their feelings are.  If you have any advice, please feel free to comment.  Thanks for reading.
