Well this week seemed long and yet quick at the same time. One day always seems to lead into the next and here we are at friday again. The end of most people's work week but the beginning of Mark's. Unfortuneately, this week we were also introduced to the fact that Mark's work wants to change his shift again but this time it is to the graveyard shift. 7pm to 7am! This does not work for us!! The only other option is for Mark to demote himself (or let the company do it) and go down drasticly in his wage. I guess the good part is that he'd have weekends off again! It is really trying on us. We are trying to trust God in this. Sometimes it is easy for me and other times, especially when I'm really tired, I worry. Especially now that we have three children, two being twins - it's a lot of work! But God is good, and our children are all healthy and we are happy. He has blessed us. It seems like God is trying to teach us a lot this year! At least this way Mark can come to Church with us again! And in fact we can all go to Church. It was looking mighty impossible for me to go to Church with three kids, two in car seats and a two year old that needs supervision and a hand to hold.
Also in two weeks, we are going to a get together for cousins and second cousins. And just to let you know, Barb, I am excited to come! Who else is coming? Sonya? See you soon!

Andrea, we will totally be keeping you in our prayers. Yup, Sonya and Gary are coming for the get together :) See you on the 4th :)
I totally understand your frustration with Mark's work schedule. Gary has been working 4 on, 4 off (2 days & 2 nights; 7-7) for 12 years now. I found it extremely difficult when the girls were little. I'll be praying for Mark's job situation. I'm sure everything will work out!
Can't wait to see you on the 4th!! :)
