Check it
out, I apparently haven't posted since October...ouch.
Shoot I
apparently haven't even gotten online on anything except my phone in a month or
two. So I'm just now breaking my iPad
back out, and theres a few small red drops on my keyboard...I'm trying to
remember if I had a nose bleed the last time I using this.
Anyway, a
lot has happened since October. And I know my posts in the Fall probably
weren't the most compelling reads because they were mostly assignments.
That
said, they were very valuable assignments for my development as a believer in
Christ.
So a
little update on where life has taken Polly and I - we've landed on our feet
(barely) in Shreveport, Louisiana. As most of you know, we moved to Alaska last
summer, and then enrolled in a Bible Institute in Missouri last fall. We graduated from the Institute in April, and
worked at a summer christian sports camp for inner-city high schoolers until
July 7th.
On
Monday, July 9th we started renting an apartment in Shreveport. I will start a job (my first "real
job") with the United Way as a campaign coordinator on August 6th. I'm excited!
Polly is hoping to land a job teaching at an elementary school. She's excited!
After
visiting Denver, Oklahoma City and seriously considering New Orleans, Polly and
I felt that we were supposed to move to Shreveport.
I never
thought I would move here, and I especially never thought I would be pumped
about it. I'm here though, and I don't
think I would be as excited to live anywhere else (yeah, even Juneau) because
we know that this is where we are supposed to be. Several people back home and
in Juneau have expressed disappointment that we didn't head back north, and I'd
say we definitely left part of our hearts up there.
We've
fiercely missed Louisiana tho.
So now
Polly and I are finishing up moving in, and I'm working on being less selfish
and more romantic.
I
absolutely adore my wife - I'm just needing to grow in the way I serve her.
