Finally

Well after 5 months, Morgan finally got the call we have been waiting for!! Morgan will start his new job on Monday!! Yipee! I'm so excited that he found something he will enjoy. His new job is with a company called Granite Mill. They specialize in architectural wood work. They have been around for 103 years, something that was really appealing to us. Second, the job is an office position! No more hard labor! Morgan will be their estimator. I'm so glad he will be in an office with a desk and best of all, air conditioning! For 5 years he had to work in a shop with no air conditioning. They couldn't have one in the shop because of all the dust. Morgan was in a 100 degree room all summer, worst of all they had to wear pants. Another perk is instead of being at work at 5:00 am he gets to go in like a normal person and start at 8:00! Holy cow that is so weird. For the past 5 years Morgan has gotten up at 4:15 to be to work by 5:00. Now he gets to "sleep in" I'm kind of a little nervous about being a "single" stay at home mom again! I have had it really easy with Morgan being home all day. I could go to the store alone, pick up Bay from school with out having to load up the whole family, take a shower that I don't feel rushed in, only have to change half of Avery's poopy diapers, have adult conversations all day and lots of help around the house. Gosh, what am I going to do with out him here all day long?? I am so grateful that I have had this time with my husband. We have grown not only closer to each other, but also to our Heavenly Father. I know he has heard and answered our prayers. I have felt the love of our friends and neighbors. I have learned that I am on the Lords time and he will bless us when we need it most. As I look back on the last five months, I realize that I have been carried. I can recall only a few times where my faith was wavered. It's when things kept happening that was out of our control. For instance, our dishwasher broke (we needed a new one) in the same week we got a crack in our windshield and realized our car will need to be registered. In order to get it passed we will have to get a new windshield. But we got through it. We made it. This trial is over and I'm so grateful for the things I have learned and over came.
