I spent the day with the Newby family in Raleigh a couple of weeks ago. Antje and Tom had recently moved to NC from Detroit with their 3 kids after they both lost their jobs and were unable to find work. This resulted in the loss of their home and after months of search, Antje landed a new job at an ad agency in Raleigh.

Now Tom stays home with the kids, doing many of the home tasks and helping the kids readjust to new schools, new places and in many ways, a new life.

They have been through a lot, and there are many things that still have to be worked out dealing with their former life and the stress the move and unemployment has had on the family relationships, but it is a new start and one that many others are looking for.
