Missing you all!
Hello friends!
Dan and I have been missing Kaleo and you all a lot lately. The camp and you guys come up a lot, and we are reminded of the amazing journey we experienced over those eight months.
Can you believe it will have been five years this September since we began Kaleo?! Dan and I were imagining a K5 reunion at the camp or Mount Washington- even for just a weekend! How incredible would that be? Like I said- we miss you a lot!
So- what's new with us? Dan just completed a two-year program at SAIT Polytechnic here in Calgary for Information Technology majoring in Computer Systems. We were so blessed to be connected through a friend to a small I.T. firm called Tracs, and Dan got a great job there as a Technical Analyst at the end of April. He is loving it.
I graduated in April with a degree in Behavioural Science, and have been accepted into the Education program at Ambrose for this fall, so I will be in school for another two years. As for this summer, I am working as a nanny of 4 kids- ages 6, 4, 2, and 11 months. It is one of the most challenging things I have ever done. I would definitely appreciate your prayers as there are many days I feel like I really don't have it in me to do this. On these days, I feel extra blessed to come home to a very understanding, patient, and supportive husband who reminds that God is bigger.
Other than the summer I worked at Qwanoes, this is the first time I haven't spent the summer in Lloydminster living with my parents. Dan and I are very close with my family and it has been really tough for me to not have them nearby (especially with the challenges I'm facing as a nanny)! Unfortunately, our car is on its last legs, so we're not comfortable making the five-hour trek from Calgary to Lloydminster to visit. We are currently saving for a newer vehicle; please pray that this process is a quick and painless one.
We love and miss you all- it was great to have Joel, Jon, and Rob come visit recently. If any of you are in Calgary, we would love to have you! I'll even make you some of my mom's famous buttermilk pancakes.
Love and miss you all!
