Waiting…

We are waiting…

Before we were waiting because we didn’t know what the next step was going to be.  Before we were waiting to figure out if Michael was going to have a job for the fall and where we would be.

Now we know…

Now we know he has at least one adjunct teaching position.  Now we know we have some money coming into purchase the things we need for the baby and for him to go to work in.  Yes he’s needed some clothes but we put it off not knowing the type of clothes that he would need for whatever job God gave him.

Now we are just waiting for the money to arrive in the account so we can inact the plan that is in our heads but can’t take affect until the check shows up.

The waiting is harder I think because we know we have a plan, we know there should be a date we can do it by but instead the days seem to tick by and we wait.  Trying not to overplan, trying not to drive myself nuts when I see good sales or free shipping now.

Knowing that…

… in just about 70 days we will have a new baby

… in just about one month Michael will be teaching and I’ll be here with the girls

… in that same time we will have had to figure out where and when I’m having doctor’s appointments (here or Syracuse) and juggling how much time we spend at the in-laws vs at home.

It’s hard right now.  I want to move forward.  I want to go on and yet I don’t want those days to leave me because it is that much shorter of a time we have together as a family being unseparated for days at a time. I just have to keep remembering that God is going to take care of it.  Every detail, every need… the ones I’ve thought of and the ones I haven’t.
