A New Phase of Life has begun...

Hmm.. what should I write?

Thank you to all of you who have been praying for my job situation. I just finished my last day at Clapham and am still doing quite a few nannying hours, which are great.

The question now is: What next? I feel a certain amount of restlessness. I long to just be able to sit back peacefully and just take whatever it is that God has for you. I am finding it difficult to just sit and rest, though. I long for the days where there were always so many people around me. I loved that about my home... we always had guests over. Marco and Kristin were practically members of our family. I hope that is the case with our family one day.

I have been greatly blessed by getting to know our college pastor's family in the past seven months. Rebecca has such wisdom and I love interacting with her and her kids. They have been so gracious at letting me bum around their home and being a part of the craziness. It's refreshing.

Andrew just returned from his conference in San Diego and is heading out again next Thursday for a week. The following weekend, we are hoping to celebrate our six month anniversary. Some get-away time will be good. This summer is strange. I have never gone into a summer with out real and concrete plans. This summer is really different. I long for my heart and mind to just be at rest.

I would greatly appreciate your prayers regarding that. Pray for rest and contentment for myself. I am in great need of that.

I have a few applications out and just made another application yesterday - I'm really really hoping that that one will work out. It seems perfect in so many ways.

Thanks for taking the time to read! Hope you are all doing well!
