An Answer to our Prayers!



I cannot even begin to tell you how relieved we are. As most of you know, Craig and I both lost our jobs in October. Craig is in the union and he will eventually be hired somewhere, but right now there is no work. I am going to stay home and take care of the Charlie Monster and all the other at home stuff.

We have been doing pretty well financially since he's been off, but we pretty much have money for bills and that's it. Craig just decided in the last couple weeks to look for a part time job to bring in a little extra money.

Becky and I started attending a new church a few weeks ago and I have been writing prayer requests for work for Craig. (I will tell you all about the church at a later time- It's great!) We got a phone call from Craig's old boss at the health department where he worked for 7 years. He needed some work done and wants Craig to do it. This is great! Then, they got to talking and it turns out there is a temporary position open and Craig applied. It would be doing the same thing he used to do there.

We got a call the same night saying that Craig got the job!! It will be nice for him to be able to get out of the house. I think he's been getting a little stir crazy. This is such a blessing. I cannot tell you how happy we are.

Is it a coincidence that this came about right after I started praying for it and asking others to do the same? I think not!

I know you can't tell, but here's Craig hard at work.
