Today is Elijah's 9 month birthday!!! Three more months and we'll be celebrating a year with this blessed creature. He is crawling up on hands and knees now and is very mobil. You wouldn't believe the change that one week can be. He now has two adorable teeth and thoroughly enjoys biting things. (However he is still pretty gentle with mommys tender places). But he frequently bites my arm or hand while in the shopping cart at the store.
He is completely aquainted with swimming now. Jeremy's parents live in a neighborhood with a community pool and we've been almost every day. There is a kiddie pool there as well that is about 1 1/2 feet deep. i got him a baby float and put him in the kiddie pool and he went to town. He loves the independence.
And we're still here. I'm sure some are wandering why.. or maybe not. Jeremy is looking for jobs here in Houston currently. WE ARE FREE!!! As of Friday, June 3rd, Jeremy is no longer bound by the evil chains of Lasergraphics. However now is the part where life really gets exciting. We are looking for jobs in houston right now, and next week we will probably travel to Dallas to see whats there. (I personally prefer houston cause it's close to the beach.) But who knows where we'll end up. I do believe that God has something great in store for us in the very near future. And I'm holding on to all hope. Friends and accountability group, please pray for us fervently in this. We're going to need to find something soon.
If only we could figure out a good way to end up in Colorado...
Also, I'm registering for the Excet today. The test is on July 9th and I have one shot at passing it. Otherwise, I'll have to take a bungload of English classes. So pray for my studying and that I'll have time to do so.
I'm currently back in Jeremiah. Its funny. I just find that book so comforting in unsure times. It's so dark and bleak but yet, it's so assuring that God is still there.
So anyway, I know this is kindof a news report. But I've been without internet for a whole week and Just needed to post some good updating. I love you all and we should be back in Nac sometime around the end of this week. (we're saying Thursday morning, but who knows.) Jeremy went to a pretty successful portfolio review and he's gotten a couple of good leads, so maybe if we're lucky he'll still be needed here at the end of the week...
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.

Happy birthday, Elijah! We are praying for you dearest Flutter. Know that you are not forgotten, and you are missed. I have been kept very busy while you have been gone. I'll try to post about what I've been up to soon, but I just wanted to let you know I was thinking of you.
I'm starting to wander... I miss you Jackie.
