Fall

What a year we have had! Last November, Sarah Kate was using a walker and we were preparing for a long year ahead with the surgery and physical therapy. Now, she is walking independently, and is even taking dance lessons (it's what they call pre-ballet, and she's not exactly preparing for a career in choreography). We are officially out of the woods financially with respect to the therapy, and have been looking forward to the future. God has blessed us.

Ironically, the future has changed. Scott has accepted another job and we will be moving "home" as soon as our house sells. It's been a difficult decision for us, but one that we believe God has led us to make. Every concern that we have had has been resolved and there is nothing holding us back now. In addition, if we have learned anything this year, it is that it will be nice to have help with Sarah Kate. Who knows? Maybe I will even go back to work sometime down the line. Whatever happens, we are trusting the Lord.

For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. - Jeremiah 29:11
