The perfect pair

Amelia is in that stage of dropping things to have you pick them right back up. Well Aleigh is in the stage of wanting to hand things to you over and over again. Guess what? They are the perfect duo. Amelia drops an item, Aleigh fetches and gives it back to Amelia and they can entertain each other doing this while I sit back and get a minute breather.

Amelia is now a crawling pro. She follows you all over the house. She also knows the nightly routine pretty well. When she hears the bathtub faucet on here she comes crawling in ready for her bath. She is also pulling up to a stand on anything that comes her way. If you are laying on the floor watch out unless you want a hand full of hair ripped out of your head. She thinks hair is a great thing to grab onto to pull up to a stand. Haha that's ok it grows back.

Jake has been applying for a lot of jobs recently. He had one job offer, but the job itself didn't seem right for us. Right now we are waiting to hear back from a job in Las Vegas, Louisville Kentucky, and Salt Lake City. The job we really thought would work out didn't. This made us very confused and didn't know what direction to go next. We finally realized the meaning of God's will for a person.

God's will is for you to do something that makes you happy as long as it is not sinful and as long as nothing in the Bible contradicts what you want. Before we were constantly thinking what does God want us to do? Well if there is nothing wrong with that option and God didn't close the door then more than likely it is in God's will, you just have to decide if you want to take it, if it would make you happy. Knowing this now, it is so much clearer what path we want to take. If we start to take a path and the door is closed it obviously is not the right path. If the door stays open and you are trying to follow God then it is a good path. Now we are testing the paths. We will see where they lead. Wish us luck!
