Changes

A lot has happened since our party! We are coming up to our 1 year anniversary in about a month. It's unbelievable that it has been a year already. Even Mike thought so! There have been constant changes, it seems like! Mike is trying to start his own business doing welding. So far it is going okay. Our only worry is not having enough work year round but we are praying about it and we will see what happens. If he doesn't get enought work then we have to move, again. Every week we are moving or we aren't moving. Who knows what we'll do! Also, Mike's brother, Billy, is living with us for a few months. He needs his brother to teach him about the value of work and the importance of school. He, like a lot 17 year olds, would like to just quit school and work. But, Mike won't let him. Instead he gets to go to school and work after school. It's good for both Mike and Billy. There has been a lot of adjusting though. Billy has been great with helping around the house and making sure his room is clean. Mike has been learning patience and I have been learning that one more mouth uses A LOT more food and drinks! Through all of this though, God has brought Mike and I closer to Him. I see him working in our lives and am so grateful for it. As for me, I am getting certified in Medical Billing on the 23rd of this month. I am studying and basically re-learning everything since it's been about a year since I was in classes. After that I am hopefully going to be getting my Bachelors. I don't know what I am going to major in for sure, probably Social Science, but we'll see. Jessie is doing good. I keep thinking she needs a friend to run around the house with but then I remember when I was up at midnight cleaning up messes. I also think of the double vet bills and double the dog food. Maybe we'll just wait a little longer!
