THE plan, for now at least

















These notes were on Justin's and my pillow last night. Heidi and Anna made them and included some money (the little pink notes says "mone"= money). And that is "special", misspelled a little :). We really have had a boring week, that really wasn't much of a break, but life moves on. And speaking of moving...drum roll...we are heading to stay with my parents! We looked at several rentals thru-out the week, but nothing was worth spending the money to live in (or would be ready in time). We know of at least one rental in our town that is available May 1st (we will go look at it after moving is done). So right now the plan is to stay with my parents for a month while we do paperwork, etc. Most of our stuff is going to a 10x30 storage locker, our dog is hopefully going to Justin's aunts' house, and garage stuff is being parted out to a few places. So there is His provision for now, we are trying to praise Him as we head into the unknown (my Bible study leader sent me an email of all the things to be thankful for, even if we think things are not ideal). All thru this month I have said I would much rather be facing this issue than any serious illness or a down-turn in Emily's health or a horrible accident or something. Life could be much worse and we know that God has this all planned out (I waiver between wondering if we missed His plan somewhere along the way or if this is His plan). In any case, I guess we needed to be fair and give all the grandparents some close time with their grandkids--it's like one big sleepover! Hebrews 4:16 says, "Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need."
