Holding Down the Fort

Dan headed to the states on Sunday to interview for possible job opportunities in Idaho and Washington.  He'll have a busy schedule as he flies between the two states and visits several different locations.  Please pray that he'll make the best choice as he considers many different aspects of each job as well as their different locations.  We're excited to see what the Lord has for us next and should know within the next four weeks where we'll be headed.

In the meantime, I'm holding down the fort here in Shell.  It was a little harder to say goodbye to him, knowing he'll be in another country and not just at the hospital, but already I've had lots of offers of help with the kids if I need it and invitations to hang out with others.  Hopefully this can be two weeks filled with lots of laughter and fun in the house and not frustrations.  Dan may get BBQ steaks and corn on the cob in the states but we get to dine on Mac N Cheese, which actually is a treat.  We thought about sneaking the kids on the plane with him but decided it wouldn't be too practical.

Anna would have been Dan's checked luggage and Caleb and Jael his carry-ons/
