More Interviews!

Well, in a rather more optimistic and positive post than the prior one (Sorry! I was having a bad day. We all have bad days every once in a while!) we have some more good news! Per my wonderful husband's request, I am very proud to say that we have since had requests for 2 more interviews since the one with Independence! Yay!! One was a phone interview with a small school outside of St. Louis. Not sure how they got our name??? But whatever, it was still a request for an interview! We aren't too hopeful for that one honestly, we really really don't want to move, especially not to St. Louis. Having both lived there for a period of our lives, we have no desire to go back! The 2nd is with the Grandview school district here in KC! For a 4th grade position. Yay! It will take place next Tuesday, so all prayers are gladly received. I'm so proud of him! If calls keep coming in like this, he will have secured a teaching position in no time!

Oh, in other not so positive news, I'm sure many of you have heard of the storms that came through the Kansas City area last week. Andrew and I had our moment of time in the basement as a tornado was thought to be heading directly for an area in the middle of my parents house and mine! It could have gone either way, and both my mother and I were wondering whose house who would end up at that night! Thank goodness, it lifted and the storm lost it's rotation a few minutes before it was in our area. Then a second round of storms came through overnight, these were even more powerful than the first round. During that round, there were two reports of tornado's on the ground in the KC area. One area not covered by the news (possibly because I don't think the tornado was quite on the ground by this time) that was damaged was our church! We sustained some roof damage, but thankfully no one was hurt and all the damage will be fixed in a week or two. God was watching out for us for that one!

So that's our news! Love to you all
