Ch ch ch ch ch changes
A year ago we were kid-less. We were working toward adopting a little girl. I was finishing up teaching summer school and looking for a more permanent job. My sister was just coming back from China, and my hubby was traveling a lot, so my critters kept me company.
Now, only 12 months later, I am Mom to two boys. The little girl is no longer in the picture, although I think of Grace often. Just after I celebrate my 1 year anniversary at my first grown-up job, I will be laid off. I am waiting to get a phone call that will tell me whether the dream job I interviewed for will come through. My sister is home and working crazy hours so I still barely get to see her, but thankfully my hubby is traveling less and is able to spend much more time with his growing family.
God is a god of adventure. I truly believe that. This whirlwind of a year is evidence.
I am waiting to see who or what comes next and praying for grace and joy along the way.

My experience with God has been: “you haven’t seen anything yet! Hold on tight!!!” I am so proud of all of you. You are standing firm in the time of testing, and reward is coming for your faithfulness. I love you all sooo much. Please give Rachel a birthday squeeze from her Daddy…
Just ran into your post thanks to Jen’s idea of having blogger share their “defining posts”. Sounds like you’re defined by change… and an ability to flow with the change. May God grant you His peace as you journey!
