For all of you who have commented either here or on Face Book, I just wanted to say THANK YOU for your kind words. Part of me wishes I would have spoke up sooner, cause a lot of you have gone through this before! But at the same time, I really had so much in my brain I was unable to process the possibilities.
I told my Mom that this appointment had become some sort of block for me. I was in quicksand. I was just barely keeping my head above the sand. I think no matter the outcome, it gave me the momentum to move forward.
Along with all this baby stuff, Jason and I have been getting ready to move. The house we are renting now is a 3 bedroom, 2 bath, 2 car garage (if you had 2 Geo Metro's!). We were preparing to move in to a BEAUTIFUL home in the Paramount subdivision. We were really excited! But have you ever seen something all "shiny" and really wanted it? Not really being able to afford it? Or even affording it, but it would have squeezed everything else out? That's what this house would have done. We had to let it go. Which was a monumental task for me all in itself.
Jason and I had prayed about it, got advice from his Dad, thought about it, and really listened to Heavenly Father. The next morning I checked the website of our property management company (for the MILLIONTH time in the past few months) to see if they had any larger homes in our budget! And wouldn't ya know! A 4 bedroom, 3 bath, 3 car garage for almost the same rent as here was opening up for the end of August. It is .2 miles from a great Elementary School (Chief Joseph). We were able to put a deposit down and it is ours!
I am just so thankful for all the blessings the Lord has POURED upon us like a rain storm! Thanks for thinking of me and the baby. We are doing great! I am not worried about the outcome.
Lot's of love......
6 SAY WHAT??????????????????:
I'm glad to hear things are working out. I've been thinking of you and your family a lot. We'll be praying for you! lots of love, Laura
Sorry to hear about all the stress that's been happening in your lives! Doesn't it seem like everything seems to happen all at the same time??!! I guess that I'd rather have a couple of really stressful weeks and get it over with at once...rather than draw it out over a long time. Love you guys!
Sounds like this new house is going to be great! Hope the move goes well :)
You are a busy woman. Good luck with the move and Congrats on the new home! Hopefully you can get settled in time for the babe :)
Heavenly Father knows each of us so well. That is wonderful news about your house! Keep you chin up.
Ok, I swear I commented on your post about the baby...maybe I did it on your facebook. I could just be losing my memory though (that happens often when you're prego!). Anyhoos, I know everything will turn out just fine with the baby, and he'll be a strong and healthy boy! My thoughts and prayers are with ya!
And yay for finding the perfect house for you and your family!! Keep us updated! Much love!
