Seattle was a top choice for us. CT just happened to work out better for us. And it is nice not to cringe the second you see a headline with your governor or reps name in it.

I moved from the second worst, Texas, to on of the top 5, Connecticut, last year. It has been the best decision of my entire life. It’s so nice to have a Governor who advocates for more spending on education and public works. Versus wasting everyone’s time fighting to put the 10 commandments in classrooms.

My kids went from learning about angels and Moses parting the Red Sea history class. Yes regular 3rd grade history, not some high school level theology elective. To this year being taught critical thinking skills and identifying and dealing with their emotions.

And don’t even get me started on the differences in special education for my son with serve ASD and communication issues. In Texas he was just shoved in the back to prevent him from being a “burden”. Now he loves going to school. I cried at his 8th grade graduation because before he could have never been in at a ceremony like that. Hearing the other kids cheer for him warmed my heart so much. He starts highschool in the fall, and is in a summer program run by the highschool to teach him life skills, like cooking, cleaning, working, all things we never thought possible for him.

Edit: I also went from having my representative in Congress being a carpetbagger nepo-baby, to a woman who grew up in public housing, became a teen mom, worked her way from community college all the way to a masters in education and was name Teacher of the Year 2016 for the entire United States
