Tale of Two Cities

Well, Katy and I are now in two separate cities. She flew back to Omaha this afternoon and arrived safely this evening. Still unsure of our absolute timetable, but the sooner we can get the house packed up and her back down here, the happier we will both be.

On the job front, Katy did indeed get that job I mentioned in Monday's update with West Texas Gas. We're both very excited about this opportunity. Additionally, we feel we have found a good daycare for Zac, and simply need to get the application completed and back to them so he can join up when she begins her new job. She has flexibility in her start date, and may not begin until after Labor Day.

I just wrapped up my second day on the new job and am more convinced than ever that this is the right next step for me. It's a great opportunity and God has just put so many things in place that it's all very satisfying. Once Katy and Zac are down here for good, all I'll be missing is Claire. :) And when the furniture is here, I'm sure the place we're renting will feel a bit more like home. Every day brings a bit more comfort and moving forward gets a little easier.

So glad to hear all of this! Sounds like a brand-new life for you and a confirmation of God's love and care. Maybe someday you will understand some of why you had to go through so much - and maybe you never will understand. But God is still God and all is well when we abide in Him. He is making you into what He wants you to be and it is never easy to grow. Stay focused and keep writing.

Love,
Mom and Dad

Thanks, mom. :) It gets more comfortable each day. Midland is a nice little town with some good things to offer. It takes some getting used to, especially when it rains and the streets become a big flood, :), but it's not so bad. :)
