Update on us....where will we end up next?

1st things 1st...I have a my last Dr.'s appt. today in Alabama. Kinda sad...since I've grown attached to this practice. They are very modern and friendly and thorough! Please pray if you remember to that all goes well and the baby is still healthy and that it cooperates and we'll see if it is a HE or SHE! The appt. is at 3:30pm...so hopefully I'll have something to post later this evening or in the morning :) We're sooooooooo excited! Thank you God for getting us this far...
2nd things 2nd... We have about 7 days left in AL! It's approached us quickly! We thought we had our plans somewhat lined out until yesterday. As you know...when it rains it pours. We went from 1 school in TX having an asst. position open to now a probable 2 schools...of friends of ours....along with 2 schools in MS having openings....one head job about 75 miles from Memphis and his folks...and the other job toward the coast of MS. Sooooooooooo....now there are several options to weigh and pray that God shows us the right door to walk through. I also applied for a job at Baylor...so we're waiting to hear if I get called to fly out for an interview. That for sure would be a 'weighty' factor in our decision making. So right now we are in limbo as to 'where the heck to move our stuff' or even put it to store...but we know God is always good, faithful, and SOVEREIGN. We ask for your prayers in God's timing of all of this and for 'finishing strong & well' here in AL. I know this next week will be challenging & emotionally charged for both of us with the 'spring game' today at CHS with a new coach...Senior Day tomorrow at CHS...and graduation next Thursday. Forrest still loves his students and players and I know will miss them and this chapter in our lives...but God has called us elsewhere and we truly have NO REGRETS for moving here, even if for a year, even with all that has happened. It has taught us much and we are better for it. I am thankful for the little/ big things...as to not pass over the fact that Forrest has gone to EVERY dr.'s appt with me this spring and would not have gotten to go to ONE if he were still coaching now. It was in God's plan...and how can we argue or question that? In Proverbs God's word says, "Many are the plans of a man's heart, but the Lord's purpose prevails." This is a verse Forrest and I claimed from the beginning of our marriage and still cling to. May it encourage us all to remember that our Lord has it all under control...and He has only a Plan A for us...there is no Plan B!
