a post!

hello girls!  I'm glad you are all writing - I have been reading the blog at the library, but haven't had time to really post anything (hard to use my internet time for that when I have so many other things to catch up on!).  I try to comment, but there is some security setting on these computers that makes it impossible for me to post.  LAME.  So anyway, I will just say that Candice - I think that is the cutest little dog coat EVER.  You can see why it probably wasn't that important for me to post that comment. haha.

Anyway!  Here is an update on my life right now.

Days totally blend into each other, but we have exciting news as of yesterday!  The worship pastor we know from Neighborhood Chapel church in Auburn called me last night, saying that the place the Senior Pastor's wife works is hiring.  I called her up and not only is she super sweet and incredibly helpful and making me feel like she wants me to get this job so badly (I've never even met her!), the job sounds perfect for me right now, everything we would need  and I am experienced to do, so just having someone advocating (and praying) for me on the inside is a great help.  I just finished the process of applying now (after three seperate trips to the library, going back and forth with information from her via email).  So I'm rewarding myself by taking some ME time and posting :) 

Also, about a week and a few days ago, Jeremy applied for a youth pastor job down in Tacoma, where they provide housing/utilties and a small stipand for 10 hours of ministry work a week (crazy!), he just heard back from the Pastor yesterday, saying that he would be calling to set up an appointment soon.

Combining that ministry job with this job opportunity I might have in SeaTac would be MORE than enough for us to live off of.  So, please pray for wisdom and for these things to work out, and if there is something else coming up that we just don't know about yet (we would always follow God's will if we had all the facts, no?), that we will be PATIENT.  God has been so good though!  I don't even understand how we have it so good.  Everything we need is provided for, and I have been so happy and full to the brim of rest this last month (even after nights like last night where the trains never seemed to stop =) ), and it has been so GOOD.

We are having a baby shower for my three sisters-in-law tomorrow, and with my free time (which I have quite a bit of during naptime and after Shea goes to bed), I have been sewing so so so so much for them!  I'm almost done and can't wait to share some pictures with you!  I made a lot of the stuff from my own designs, and am so happy with how they turned out.  I'm actually getting to the point of feeling burnt out on sewing though, haha.

OK well I have 1.5 minutes left before my computer logs out.  Thanks for listening to my ramblings and for keeping on posting when you can!
