Limbo

Limbo is really the only word I can use to describe our lives right now. I consider myself the type of person that wherever I am in life I try to just make the best out of it. These last few months I have been failing miserably at this. God has us in a major limbo still with Ryan's job. Every week we are promised that we are getting closer and closer to the offer. This has been going on since June!!! I kept thinking I can handle this time until its time for school to start and all of our fun activities to start back up. Well that time has come and gone. We decided to get involved in a bible study down in Sacramento so we are traveling down there two days a week. Last week we found a wonderful home for us down in Sacramento that won't be ready till November. That would work out perfectly if we could just get out of this LIMBO. Right now we are toying with the idea of just moving and Ryan commuting for a little while. We are just praying and trusting that it will all come together.
With this Limbo we decided to home school because it just made since. I am loving it!!! Third grade is really fun to teach. I feel as though she is teaching me just as much as I am teaching her. The big guy is doing kindergarten. Fun, Fun, Fun. So, I guess the home school part of the limbo has made it worth it.
Well, I guess that is it for now. I was telling my sis in law yesterday that I just haven't been feeling creative to blog. This seems strange for a person like her that is always creative. By the way she just started her own photography business. Go check her out http://livilanephotography.blogspot.com.

being in limbo is so hard...i remember that feeling in our lives and boy did i struggle. i finally realized that i needed to 'fix my eyes' on Jesus and the burden of my circumstances would fall away. i'm putting you on my prayer list. God knows the plan, and hopefully you'll know soon too.

Might I encourage you, too, to enjoy these days of limbo. Filling them with worry and fret will make them miserable and who knows how long they will last. I'm looking at a year of choosing not to worry and we've had a great year AND I still don't know what the plan is. God has provided and lead us every step of the way and there have been some very unexpected blessings.
P.S. Congrats on getting back to home schooling (something that always seemed to be your hearts desire) and yes this would be one of those unexpected blessings of LIMBO!!!

I love you friend. I hope you know that you are in our prayers. We think of you often. Many hugs.
