I am Consumed


Over the past the 2 months I have literally been consumed with our search for our 1st home. We have had one crazy experience after the other where this search is concerned. And as with all the wonderful events in our 9 years of marriage, we again have felt extremely blessed by our loving Father in Heaven. We celebrated our 9th Anniversary, on Tuesday the 13th, and did so by ending the search. This time it's for real. Sure, I was at the point where I felt we could make "anything" work, but thank goodness Mark was willing to wait for just the right one.

Monday night we had the pleasure of walking into the home of Ms. Dee, a wonderfully sweet person, with our tremendously patient realtor, Tessa, and became overwhelmed with the sweet feelings of "Home". Prayers have been answered. Dee and her husband John received 6 offers at the time we put ours in, but they said that they felt inspired to go with our offer. And we are truly grateful. We had the inspection completed yesterday, and guess what.... No Termites!! or anything major.

I am now consumed with feelings of peace, love, gratitude, and humility. Lessons have been learned, though hard to accept at times. And overall this is shaping up to be one of the most exhilarating experiences for our family.

We are scheduled to close on the 27th of April!!
