Welcome back!
Well, you've heard me talk about a big change that might be coming up this year for us. We have been talking and praying and researching for weeks now and we've finally made a decision.
Some of you might already know because we've been making phone calls for advice and references. So, it's probably time to let everyone in on what's going on.
Larry has decided to join the Air Force.
We have had the decision made for a little while now, but I guess I just wasn't ready to come to terms with it before. I NEVER thought I'd be ok with him going into the military. But, as we've prayed and considered the decision, I've been blessed with so much peace and I know this is the right choice and the best thing for us to do right now.
So, we are still in California and working with a recruiter here to get Larry into the Air Force. I know that Larry is passionate about this and he is excited about the possible career options that this will open up for him. We are anxious to have the process done so that we can have some time together before he leaves for basic training, so we are struggling to be patient, but we know all of the frustrations we have had the last few weeks will be worth it. I am so proud of Larry, he did very well on his ASVAB (the test to determine what careers he'd potentially qualify for), well enough that he could honestly do whatever he chose to do in the Air Force. I married a pretty dang smart guy!
I'm not looking forward to having him be gone. We've been together every single day since the day we met and I had hoped to have that continue, but my plans are never quite the Lord's plans! But we have been blessed in this process and I have no doubt that, as we continue on this road we will continue to be greatly blessed.
Anyway, that's really just about it for what I have for you this week. We're still kinda under the weather so we haven't had any exciting adventures this week, but hopefully next week!!
Any words of encouragement would be greatly appreciated, or if you have any questions or comments they would also be welcomed! We love you all and I hope you are doing very well!
Less Than Three,
Sarah
