It's been a whirlwind month since Jennifer, Jackson, and I got back from Thanksgiving.
First and foremost my child is a walking machine, roaming to and fro the earth searching for pacifiers and things to get into and break.
He and Aiden Mariano are the new terrors of the church toddling around, yelling at each other and chasing Aiden's older brother Seth around. We love it.
After a hard day of getting into things I shouldn't
The last week I got to go to the booming and beautiful Metropolis know as......
........
wait for it.......
.........
wait for it.........
Lubbock.
Ahh... sweet Lubbock; green pastures, calm, warm, nice people.....
Wait.... that's College Station. My bad coach.
I had a training that lasted the week. Slide road was nice for finding things to do but past that I don't desire to go there for quite a while. They did have a decent pipe shop in Heroes and Legacies and I was quite alright with it.
Church has been heckabusy w/ Christmas stuff and other things going on. Jen and I have been approached about teaching the college ministry... and we're seriously considering it at this point. I told Jen I just wanted to step out for a year of teaching after doing it for 6 years solid from my Sr. year of high school. It's not that I don't love it or know that ministry is something i can "step" out of for a year
The year is almost up... so now it's time to see where we can be used the most and most importantly, where God needs us.
I know Jen would love to work w/ the college girls and I would love to work w/ the guys some, but we have one small problem
What? Me? A Problem?
We want to be available to the college kids (kids? ... i'm like, 4 years older), but we also can't keep the late hours that they do, which is something we'd love to do. So we're praying about it and seeing if it's what God has for us. We'll see
On a side note. I just want to take a chance here to let everybody know I have a splendid wife and love her much. We both love this season so much and I love all the time I've got to spend w/ her and Jackson lately. We are set to have a few days of just us until we leave for Stamford on Christmas Eve.
As I have a little guy for the first time ever this year it just blows my mind to know that our sweet and mighty saviour was once jackson's size walking around toddling, getting into everything, but not sinning... Amazing.
