I Have An Interview

Yay!!! The McNairy Co Board of Education just called and would like to interview me for a substitute teacher position on March 31!! I am so excited!! Thank you God!!! We were just praying and talking about this exact thing last night. We had decided that since it had already been over a month, maybe I should just check out a couple of other options. I am very hopeful! We were trying to figure out if we could make it on Jeff's income alone and we figured out that we could, we just would be scraping by at times. Please pray with us that if God wants me to be a substitute that I would do very well in the interview. Since God has opened this door a little I am hopeful that it will work out. The only interviews that I have done were for the jobs that I had in college. So...it has been been awhile folks:) Please pray for my nerves and everything else. This is so exciting!!!!

Settled...well almost :)

We are pretty much settled in our new home. We have finished unpacking all boxes. We just have to put the pictures on the wall as well as put some curtains up in 3 rooms. We went to our first church outing. The church goes out to lunch every 1st Wednesday of the month. We went to Ryan's today! Yum!! It was fun!! We had a chance to sit, eat and talk to some of the church members. I am already feeling a great deal of love for our new church family.

I have been struggling the past week. I have absolutely no clue on how to be a pastor's wife. I feel so discouraged at times. I am praying that God will show me the new role he has lined out for me. I am looking forward to learning!

I have been lonesome for my family and Jeff's also. I have never been this far away from my parents. Even when we lived in Dickson, Jeff's family was always near so I always had someone close to talk to. I am praying that God would show me the plans that He has for us here...step by step. I know that He is faithful and is always near. That thought alone has brought a smile to me face as well as gives me such a peace that only He can give me.

We are in the process of planning several events for the church. A few ideas that have been thrown out are...Easter celebration, VBS, a revival, showing FireProof. I am looking forward to each of these.

The kids are enjoying preschool. They go two days a week from 8:30-12:30. They seem to really enjoy it. I have applied to be a substitute. I am just waiting for the call to be fingerprinted as well as interviewed. I hope that they call soon!

Everything else is going okay. The kids are healthy at the moment, as are me and Jeff. That is always a good thing. We are looking forward to the next couple of days when it is sunny and warm outside so we can play outside. We are also excited about Chris, Wendy and the girls coming up on Saturday!! Hurry up :)
