Hi Friends. I know it has been a little time since I have updated you all.

First, David has his next exam on April 10 - the Friday before Easter. I have a feeling that this exam will tell us a whole lot, so it will be an important one. I also have to say that I am not anxious about it at all. God has brought me extreme peace about which ever way this exam goes. I just hate that the little guy has to go through it all.

Secondly, we got a nice offer on our house. We moved out this weekend into the basement apartment of Rob's Grandparents' house. It is a small space, but very lovely. We are going to stay here at least until the kids finish school. This allows them to continue to go to the same school that they started the year at. Our closing on the house is scheduled to take place on Tuesday March 31. It would be great if it could happen on this day as planned. If we close on April 1 or any day after that, we will have to pay at least the interest on our loan or more....so we would love to close in March and save that money. We would love your prayers for this to happen! We have been very busy moving everything and putting things into storage and so forth. We are tired, but we are happy that everything is moved and we can get back into some sort of a routine again until the end of school.

Thirdly, we are in the search for a house in the Winston-Salem area. We are trying to find a place with a little more space than our previous house (our old place was 1289 sq ft.). We are also trying to stay within the budget that we have set for ourselves. There are some very promising places, but the process can be confusing. We would also love your prayers for God to lead in the search and that all the details would flow smoothly. We will be looking at a place this afternoon that seems to have some potential, so that will be exciting!!

Our lovely Hannah had a birthday last week! She is now a very tall 7 year old! I am hoping to have a little party for her with some of her friends from school in the near future. The interesting thing is...we were living in this same apartment when Hannah was born, and now, 7 years later....we're back!! She is such a sweet girl, and we are so thankful that God gave her to us. She is doing very well in school, and is a great help to me with David. She can do a lot to take care of him which makes me much more sane.

I think that is all for now. I'll let you know how the exam goes in a few weeks.

Good News

Hi there everyone! I just wanted to share with you that we got an offer on our house on Sunday. We signed the paperwork to get the ball rolling yesterday. There are still things that could make the deal fall through, but it was a very good offer - so we are hopeful.

If the deal goes through, we will be closing either March 31, or April 1. We are hoping for March because it would save us quite a bit of money. Please pray that the buyer will be open to this idea.

We are planning on staying here in Greensboro until the end of the school year. We want to let the kids finish their school year here at their school, and then move. This would also help us to save up a little more money for a downpayment on a house in Winston-Salem.

So, just wanted to share that with you. We still don't know when Davids' next exam will be. I'll let you know when I find out.
