The dump truck has officially backed up!!!

If any of you have read Brandy's post about Damon's prophecy concerning the month of March - you know what I mean. And it has happened...God poured out the blessings in the month of March. On the last day of March my husband got a new job!! Finally!!!!!!!!!!!! You have no idea how long he has been looking and looking for some change in his career (well, some of you do). He is still a "truck driver," but now he is a tow truck driver. And I am not just talking about towing little cars and trucks, I mean the BIG ones! He will be driving a huge semi tow truck that will pull other big rigs! Sounds a little scary to me, but my man is not scared!! He had his first day of training yesterday and God is already showing him so much favor with the other drivers and with his boss. I am so proud of him and so excited about what God is doing in his life!

Also, the last week of March, God showed us the house we would be living in. If I could sit down and tell you the story about that one you would be floored. Let's just say it's a God thing!! The house is 3BR 2 BA with a 1/2 acre yard. It has tons of roses and other flowers and a back yard full of fruit trees. We are so excited about all of the roses and fruit trees b/c we will be able to bless others with our abundance. We signed the lease agreement yesterday but won't be moving until the first of May b/c we had to give notice to our apartment manager. Oh, and did I mention that it is just around the corner from our favorite park in Fresno?? So the kids and I can literally walk around the corner to the park and feed the ducks or have a picnic or whatever. Like having a huge playground in our backyard, except we don't have to keep it up! How cool is that? Anyway we are very excited about having a larger home and having a yard for the kids to play in, trees to climb, grass to mow, etc. Plus we can have pets if we like, which is first on the list for our kids. Now we just have to decide whether we want a dog or a cat.

Soooooo, we have a lot to do over the next few weeks! If you don't hear from me, that's why. But I will be back!!! Love you all :@)
