Tough decisions

A few months ago I was renting a house on the north side of Holland, my landlord came to me and said i had 30 days to move out so his son (who was getting married could live in the house). As a mother I was freaking out, I wanted to make sure i found the best place possible for my daughter to stay. We looked at several different apartments and a few houses to rent. I was not satisfied with anything that was available to me at that time. My parents were kind enough to let me move back home with my cat, dog and child. I was very blessed that they agreed to let me move in to save up money to have more options. We all sat down and discussed me possible purchasing my first home. I was totally freaked out by that! As a single mother i was not sure that was a commitment I was ready for yet. I agreed to head to the credit union to see if i could get approved for a loan. I had it in my head that there was NO way i would get approved, I was terrified of the outcome of the meeting at the credit union. While I was there I learned that I got approved and that I can do whatever I set my mind to do! The mortgage lady referred me to a great Realtor. We stared looking at houses, the more I looked at the more I was becoming disappointed. I was picturing that "perfect" house in my head. A 2 story house with cute landscaping and a big kitchen. Reality I was not going to get EVERYTHING I was hoping for in my first house. Then a miracle happened! I was offered a 3 bed room two and a half bath cute house in a great neighborhood! Only a month and a half unti I will be a home owner!!!!
