Well, coming it is. Clint got a job last week - in the Boise valley - Parma to be exact. So they will be packing up and moving all the way across the state - to some suburb of Boise. I am so excited for them but not so excited that they are now going to be 8 hours away from me instead of just 4. But somehow I am at peace with it. I knew this day was coming but it is going to be hard for me to have Rachel so far away - far enough that I can't get to her in half a day! But closer than the job he applied for in Maryland. For that I am grateful. And for technology like Webcams that allow us to see each other whenever we want to.
Oh and David got a job last week! For that I am grateful. It was a week for jobs - lots of tender mercies :)
Oh and Lynn passed the LCSW (licensed clinical Social Worker) test last week - the last step in his formal education which started almost 8 years ago. Now he can read and study whatever he wants to instead of studying for the test. I'm grateful for the personal growth that I have had during this very spiritual process of him trying 3 times to pass. It wasn't about the exam. It was about whether or not he and I were allowing the spirit to tutor us and move us to a different place than we were a year ago. It was about submitting my will to the Lord's will and accepting that He has a plan. He knows the steps I must take, the journey I must walk, the growth I must have so that I can be an instrument in His hands! He knows that I must be here in Montana separated from my family. But life is good and I am a better person than I was a year ago. I am a better person than I was 3 years ago when we moved to Montana. I am a little wiser, a lot more humble, more teachable, more grateful!
