One Year Ago Today...
...we arrived in McKinney with all of our belongings. Sometimes it just amazes me that a year can go by so quickly. I still feel "new" here (all of our things are still packed away!) and it doesn't seem like we've been gone from Virginia that long, but we have. I have been a little down as this date has been approaching because Tim and I just aren't where we thought we'd be by now, but God's timing is just not the same as mine and I'm sure His is better. I am thankful, though, that Tim has a good job and that I am enjoying what I'm doing too. One year out of corporate America has been a very good thing for me! We've also made a lot of friends here and are blessed to be able to stay with family until we can buy a place of our own. Please pray for us as we try to make wise financial decisions with regard to buying a house and as we try to remain patient for the things in life (house, baby, etc.)that we want so badly.

Hey Jill- I'm going to pray for you this week as you wait on the Lord. He always comes through at exactly the right time. Hard to understand when we're waiting, but thank goodness he can see far beyond what our limited vision can see and he always provides! I think I wrote that for myself to see in print- we're waiting on him too!
Love you and miss you and can't wait to see you- we'll be in town next month and when we finalize our plans, I'll be sure to let you know! Can't believe we'll most likely be close in proximity again! It will be fabulous!
Love you!

Jill-
Know that I continue to pray for you as the Lord brings you to mind...asking that He will continue to lead you guys with His peace and direction.
One of the ladies at our church says, "The Lord is seldom early, never late." I think of that often as we scan the horizon for the answer to our prayers...We are confident He is moving...just wishing it was more on our time schedule...(But doesn't everyone?):) Know that you are loved and prayed for and that I will join you in rejoicing at each answer to your prayers as He reveals it!
Blessings to you dear sister-

Jill-- Time does fly. It's weird how we let "anniversaries" jar us. We have expectations of what will happen and when... and that's just what they are: expectations.
So... here's to life surprising us with the unexpected. It usually ends up better anyway. :)
