• Apr. 6, 2006 - More changes

This week we heard that my dh's grandmother died on Sunday-she was a devout Hindu.  Our hearts are grieving for more than just the loss of her presence.  We visited with her over the holidays in Canada.  She lived six months out of the year at my dh's house his entire childhood, so he was very close to her.  My aunt's mother also died this week in Arizona.  She gave my dh and me our first furniture when we were married and again another set when my dh was commisioned in the AF. 

I am still digging out from our move; there are boxes in my entryway and in the garage.  For some reason, I am having a hard time getting unpacked and settled in.  This is very unusual for me-I am usually unpacked and decorated within the first week.  Not this time!  The constant rain is kind of bumming me out, too.  Sigh.  Maybe I am just getting a little bit tired of the moving thing.???  Maybe we become less elastic as we age?

My dh is at work again and learning lots of new things.  He will find out in June, maybe even in May, if he gets to stay in the AF, so it is all about waiting on the Lord and being content.  (Isn't everything?)   My little ones are still doing piecework when it comes to school-they are behind, I admit it.  Well, I can't be the only one, can I??

I know what mean. I usually unpack fairly quickly. We moved 5 times in 11 years and that is just changing States, not houses. When we moved in base housing last year, it was really hard to get settled. I am tirid of moving. If we can stay in, it looks like me may get a second assinment here. That would be great, but like you said, I wonder too how long we will be in, but God is control of that. My husband has a profile for health reasons. So he will most likely be one of the first officers cut. He meets his second medical board this June. Last time (2 years ago) the AF was short of Weather officers. So things could be different this go around, but Chris and I are both getting tirid of moving and want to go back to Alaska. Who knows maybe God has been preparing us for that. He would have taken it really hard two years ago. Thinking of you as well.

About Me

While I find homeschooling a struggle more often than not, I am grateful to be able to be with my children every day, seeing how the Lord is growing them in knowledge. My prayer is to learn to enjoy them more, to show them how glad I am to be home with them and to be used of God to educate them in academics, homemaking and in the Word.
