To move or not to move

We are having a market analysis done on our home. We have upgraded our self right out of the neighborhood. We are now at a point that we need to consider moving. Not because we don't love our neighbors or have enough social space, but because we are a consumable materialist society and we have stuff, kid stuff, craft stuff, sport stuff, and office stuff. I know you have "stuff" too. Well we are a bedroom short on our main level and a garage stall short for the wagon, bike, stroller and so on.
It is a struggle to consider new neighbors, new mortgage, desires, needs vs wants, and location, location, location. Even in my home time location is an issue. I am partial to staying as close as possible to our current location, I also don't have a desire to be right across from a school.
Then there is being a good steward of God's money to consider, being practical and staying in the financial comfort zone, but also not being so frugal 12 years from now we are wishing we just would have spent the money, because here we are.... wishing we would have just spent the money. Then we wouldn't be in this situation. These are big changes, big decisions and I can only pray God's will for us comes shining through. Big and Bright, those are the kind of directions I need, but the Lord already knows that.
