Thankful

I found out last week that my sister was called to go to the Border Patrol Academy. As much as I have my views on women and law enforcement, I pray that this is where God is calling her. She has worked so hard and waited so long for this phone call. She is excited and basically this starts her step to a new chapter in her life. She is single so it makes it a bit easier for her. Tony and I were talking about this, and he said that leaving and having all that responsibility on his shoulders was a lot. But God blessed us with this wonderful job. So I pray for a safe 4 months for her and that she passes everything. Also my dad called today and said that he and my mom are coming on the 9th. We had invited them for Easter, but said they would come the day after. They are coming just to celebrate my birthday. Even though I'm not a kid anymore, I'm excited!!! This will be my parent's second trip to SV since we moved into the house.
I'm also excited because we bought bedroom furniture last week. Our very first set!!! Praise God for a great tax refund! As soon as the repairs are done from the water damage they will deliver it. And then Sat we bought a new mattress. Tony has had our current one for at least 17 years. So we were in desperate need of a new one. So that comes this Sat! Hopefully this will help with my backaches. And we decided on a paint color for our room. Now to convince Tony that we are capable of painting our own bedroom.

Sounds like you do have a lot to be thankful for sister! That's exciting about your parents coming for your birthday and you should post pics of your new bedroom set!!! That's one of my goals someday too... And, I pray you have a blessed and wonderful Easter with your beautiful family!
