Life is full of boxes!



Well, we are in full swing move mode right now, so before I can't find the computer or time to sit down I just wanted to add a quick update.......

Megan is loving dance class and is gearing up for her recital in June! We've just registered her for VPK next fall. I'm excited for her, but can't imagine taking her to school every day when she's been with me nearly every day since she was born. We've chosen a Christian preschool that offers VPK. They are the only school near us that teach from a Christian curriculum. A lot of our friends have sent their kids to this school and we've met several other kids who will be going there in the fall. We'll let you know how it goes!

Jacob is loving life and going full throttle! He's ever the active one. We're so excited to hear more clearly enunciated words recently and are looking forward to conversations with our little man.

We are reminded of God's hand and provision every day--my dad spent much of last week in the hospital with pneumonia. He has been released and is recovering at home now. Karen has been dealing with sickness too, making it that much harder for them to take care of each other. My mom continues to receive good reports at each doctor's visit.

God has also blessed us abundantly with fantastic friends! We are moving into the home of sweet friends who are currently out of state working plus we have friends who have actually agreed to help us move AGAIN. We plan to stay about 3-4 months while we sell our house in TN and purchase a home here. Please be in prayer with us about this. We truly feel this is where we are meant to be and really want to "settle." It would be fantastic to find a home near great schools and begin life knowing that we don't have a move anywhere in the foreseeable future. We miss the connections with neighbors and are praying that God will bless us as He has before with great neighbors. I'll post a picture soon of the place we will call home for the next few months.

Well, I'm off to get rest for another full day tomorrow!

The pictures are of Jacob being silly and Megan with her ladybug blanket she got for Valentine's Day from her Nana!!!

I hope the move goes as smoothly as possible for your family. Can't wait to see your new home!
