Mark and I want to thank everyone who has been praying about Mark finding a job. He was offered a manager job by Hy-Vee. He just had his first day at work yesterday.
It has been great having him home with Cole and I for the first 3 1/2 months of Cole's life. He has been a great help around the house, got a few projects done, has taken care of me a few times while I have been sick (thankfully not recently) and been a wonderful daddy to Cole. I already miss having him around during the day. Mark said just a few weeks ago that he was looking forward to going back to work though.
We were thinking the other day that we should have enjoyed our "time off" more and went on a vacation or done something bigger with our time. As soon as he lost his job, my first thought was that we could still buy tickets and join the rest of the family in Florida for Spring Break. However, the looming thought of not having a job might have lessened our fun, plus we didn't have an income. We quickly decided against it. Oh well, we have had lots of fun at home during this time.
My maternity leave is just about over and Mark and I decided that I should cut back on my hours, so I decided to no longer be an Executive with Target, but to demote and work part time. I can get out of the house a bit and have adult interaction, earn a bit of extra fun money and still keep my coveted Target discount.
Thanks again for all who have kept us in your prayers.
