......we have often talked about how long we would be New Yorkers....Stefan and I moved to NYC aspiring to have challenging and exciting careers....and we found that here......we didn't really have a time set on how long we would aspire to be here, BUT 6 years later........1 husband, 3 different neighborhood moves, 1 apartment purchase, 2 career changes, 1 stint in Europe, 2 babies in 15 months and it's finally feeling like this will be home for a long time.....we have our little nook in the city where we can break free from all of the hustle and bustle, actually hear birds sing, love our neighbors, know our local deli and dry cleaner owners and our children know nothing else other than this wonderful place that we call home....It's just dawned on me lately that this is our little life and I need to capture more moments of it....and savor each of them because the days are flying by.........and so thebalderachs.com was born.....
