Life

Normally I don't do life updates as posts, but so many exciting changes have been going on. After much prayer and contemplation my husband and I decided that it was time for me to look for a new job. The current one I was in was just not working out, I was so unhappy and it was creating to much stress. I also needed a full time job to help us save up money to buy a house later this year and to pay for the adoption shortly after. It was such a difficult decision, but I really felt like God was leading me to begin a new journey. Boy was I glad I listened to Him and his prompting because little did I know that He had a much better plan in store for me. 

After searching for a few months and talking to several people from the museum I was currently at, I realized that in order to move into the position I ultimately wanted I needed to add a lot more to resume which was going to be difficult. So I began looking for internships and landed one at a small gallery. It wasn't where I ultimately wanted to be, but it was s start. That's when I had the opportunity to interview at my dream museum, I wasn't even convinced that they would hire me after the interviews. Even though both interview went well, I still didn't want to get my hopes up just in case I didn't get the position. All I could do was pray that God would help me get the position and wait to hear from the museum. 

After a couple of weeks of not hearing from the museum I just assumed that I didn't get the position. Just when I began to give up all hope, they called. I was officially offered a full time position and a pay increase at the museum. 'Praise God!'  Was all I could think. Not only do I have the opportunity to work at a museum I've only dreamed about, I also was able to have full time status which was going to be a major help to our savings budget. The only negative is that the job is a much farther commute than what my previous job was, and that was already quite an extensive drive. But hopefully God will provide a house for us that cuts down on the drive to both of our jobs. Fingers crossed!

With the new job I also get medical coverage which was slightly depressing at first because that meant I was going to have to be taken off my husband's amazing insurance plan, but after looking into the options I had I realized that I might actually have the chance to finally visit a holistic infertility specialist. This is something I've been wanting to do for a while now, but our current medical provider doesn't cover any portion of that type of Doctor. After going through the first round of infertility treatments and realizing that my phobia of medical needles is still alive and well, we came to the conclusion that we needed to pursue holistic treatments instead if we still wanted kids through the natural way. 

All in all once again, God had bigger things in store for us. As we begin this new chapter in our lives we will continue to trust God and follow the path that He has set before us.
