It’s still so weird to wrap my head around sometimes, knowing I’m married to the best man in the world.
Last night, we were having some “personal” time, and he just couldn’t stop looking at me. He looks at me with eyes that say “You’re beautiful, you’re wonderful, and I’ll protect you with my life. I’ll never let you go.” And so forth. He thinks I am so perfect and we are still in disbelief that something this good could happen to us.
Things are at a bit of a stand still; his last job interview didn’t produce a job (this is now 5 times this has happened, twice with the SAME SCHOOL, but that’s another story). He and I talked yesterday about where to go from here, but he’s losing hope. He is trying to decide if he should keep trying the academic route, or try a different approach. We discussed all the options, and I think he’ll try the academic route again.
We’re not in dire straits. I have my job, and can always been looking for a new one. He is stuck on where he wants to go. The problem is that we have to postpone starting our family until he gets the stable work. With his current string of luck, that could take years.
We don’t even know what it is they don’t like about him, he’s freaking perfect! He has all the qualifications, everything you could want from a professor/researcher. And yet...
In spite of that, we are so happy. We have employment, a home, our cats, our families and each other. We have everything we NEED, and that’s the most important thing. Children will come, and we’ll make it work when they do.
But right now, we are going to do the best we can and leave the rest up to God. Alex will pray and meditate on the next step and I’ll be with him each step of the way. God has provided for us thus far, and maybe we just need to lay low for awhile...dunno. It’s always hard to tell with Him LOL.
We are okay. We’re anxious to start a family, but now isn’t the time. We’ll know when the time is right. Thank you Lord for all we have for keeping us happy, healthy and safe. We are truly blessed.
