Whew its been awhile...

Wow! I haven't updated in almost a month! :) So heres a run down of the past month..

I've had a REALLY hard time finding a job down here in Auburn. Nothing was willing to pay me anywhere close to what I was making at Little Lambs. I decided to work at Little Lambs during the week and come back to Auburn on the weekends until I found something else. While it wasn't ideal, we didn't have a choice. I DIDN'T want to do it, but Jon and I HAD to have money. I got soooooo tired of people saying, "I'd just have to be poor before I would live away from my husband!" I guess it was different for Jon and I because we were use to living apart from each other. Thats not to say it wasn't hard. I MISSED Jon tremendously, but we had to do what was best for us. I knew that God would provide me with the right job. I just had to keep praying and keep searching.

About a month ago, when everything was happening with Mrs. Stevenson, I got a call from someone in Auburn about a job. I had a MILLION things on my mind that week and almost forgot to call them back. When I called back the supervisor was already gone for the day. I left all my information for her to call me back. Well, I figured I had lost the interview since I didn't call her back for a few days.

Well, on Tuesday night, I had the dreaded stomach bug. So on Wednesday, I didn't go to work. My phone rang and it was from Milestones Learning Center! They were calling to see if I was still interested in the job and told me they had a FULL TIME position that was opening up! We set up an interview for monday the 24th. :) I was so excited, but at the same time didn't want to get my hopes up.

Well, I went for the interview today. I have to say it was the MOST comfortable in an interview I have been in a long time. The rooms are great, teachers seem nice, and the kids are oh so cute! The supervisor told me that they have been opened for a year and haven't had anyone quit yet. I think that says A LOT for the company! The company seems great! And......

They offered me a JOB!!!!!!!!!!! (and for a pay CLOSE to what I was getting at Little Lambs!) I am THRILLED! Now Jon and I can officially start our lives together. I KNEW God would provide me with the right job. Thats why I didn't settle for just anything!

I am going to miss being in Birmingham a lot. I am going to miss everyone a little lambs, my family, and I am going to especially miss seeing my Daisy everyday. I use to LOVE to go see her in the baby room and rock her to sleep. I loved walking up to her door and her dropping what she was doing to crawl as fast as she could to get to me. Then she would MELT my heart as she would cry when I would leave her. Its been so special to see her everyday and watch her grow.

Ah, now I am crying......

Have a great Thanksgiving everyone. I sure have a LOT to be Thankful for this year...
