What I know for Sure!

Once again I'm writing a blog post and it's been way to looooong since my last one! So I wanted to catch you up with what's been going on in the Gerspacher household!

Somewhere during mid April Pat was laid off!:( This was a huge surprise to our family! His last day of work would be May 4th! Looking back the first week after Pat told me I was a mess! I cried a lot wondering what we were going to do and my brain was flooded with all the  "What Ifs" situations.
My mind began to fill up with comforting scriptures! Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have for you", declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future!"
What I Know for Sure was that GOD WOULD PROVIDE FOR US!

I had been subbing at the kids school as a para educator and my work load has always been pretty full, but it's funny that from May-June I worked almost everyday! Once again the LORD was helping to provide for my family and make a little extra income!

It was great having Pat home the last few weeks of school.  He was able to attend many of the kids school events, Concerts, field days etc.... He helped the kids get up, dressed, breakfast and made lunches while I was getting ready to head to school as well! (I'm gonna miss this!) He also was a great chauffeur as he dropped us off and picked us up everyday! I know that he cherished seeing the kids in their school environments! Ethan and Presley's classmates even got used to having Pat around.  As Pat would attend each of there schools every week to have lunch with them! How special is that!  The kids first called him Mr. Gerspacher but then they started calling him Pat! Pat said one time he was up at Top Foods and this kid in Presley's class said Hey Pat and the Mom kind of looked at him weird! He became a school regular!

The first week the kids were out of school they attend a VBS! They had a blast! Pat and I were busy running errands all week!  We got nothing done around the house that we wanted! But we sure had fun! Running to Trader Joe's, Home Goods and some other stores! Pat is such a good sport!

The last few weeks we have done so many fun things! Wild Waves, Hiking, Rode the Duck downtown Seattle, seen movies! We've probably been having to much fun!:) What I thought was such a bad thing, really    
became a good thing.  But all good things must come to an end! Or they have to come to an end because we need to make money to do all those fun things!!!! That's right Pat is heading back to work! We are super excited about his new job!

But here is what I know for sure!
That GOD Does and Will Provide!
That my family is Strong and no matter what our circumstance is, we get through it TOGETHER!
