My oh My How Things have Changed....

since I last posted. It has been super duper hectic and exciting what has happened recently.

1. Hubster was offered a job making around $10,000 - $20,000 a year more than he was. He starts on Monday. He is nervous and excited. He hopes that it works out, and that he likes working for them. He also is getting a company vehicle, so that means no wear and tear on our personal vehicles plus they pay for gas. It also means that it looks like we will be able to move in February or March.

2. We found out on the Tuesday before Thanksgiving that my brother, who has been in prison for nearly 7 years made parole. He actually got out yesterday. He is going to be staying with us. He looks good, but he seems like a fish out of water. He promises that he will never go back. I hope so. They told us it will take about 2 weeks for him to get acclimated back to civilian life.

3. One of the first graders where the boys go to school passed away last Monday after a 2.5 year battle with cancer. Her mom is a teacher up at the school, so they didn't have school on Friday. It was the day of her funeral. Her mom sent out a message that said that Maddie had not been responsive for over 2 days, and on Monday she smiled and reached up her arms. Her mom said that she went to be in Jesus's arms. What a wonderful thought. We know that one day we will see Maddie again. She is now pain free.

All of the kids are doing excellent. They are all growing like weeds. Hubster and I have an anniversary coming up very soon. We are trying to figure out what we are going to do.
