The Bad Blogger

Finally I am posting but it isn't with pictures - I will get them up soon. Life is moving forward and is full everyday. Eli is cutting his first two teeth, Ruthie is cutting her 5th and maybe 6th, Noelle is finally getting her top tooth coming in (she has lost 7 and is not yet 6 years old!). Our health has improved for the most part although the kids have never lost the congestion that they had while in Ethiopia. It is still a constant part of our lives and wiping noses is a continual project.

I have an interview on Thursday at Lewis University and have applied to 3 others. Some would mean that we don't have to move but 2 of them would require us to try and sell our house and relocate. They all sound really interesting and would be a good fit, so we are of course leaving it in God's hands and will wait to see if any one gives us an offer. If not, I will return as an adjunct for NIU in the fall.

The kids will be having a birthday soon and we are having a nice family gathering at the Gparents house. They come back from vacation next week. Noelle can't wait :)

Pictures soon! I promise!

Good to hear from you. I know what you mean about wiping noses, we have had 2 weeks now with pretty clear noses. We thought it would never end! Mine still have giardia though - ugh! The interviews sound exciting. You are right - God knows what you need so just leave it in His hands. Can't wait for some pictures!

I thought about you while on the plane back from Ethio. It was so hard with just one child, I don't know how you did it. You must never get sleep. Glad to see a new post.
