Chris is back...Hey la... my husband's back!


Chris is home from Taiwan, but still feeling the jet lag almost 5 days later. Now he can focus on... his new job! He is very excited about the job transfer within TI to another group, but he has
4 weeks before he begins working in the new group. He is busy, busy trying to tie up loose ends on old projects. It is so exciting to see how God orchestrated the whole deal. Ask Chris for the full scoop, its pretty neat to see how it all fell together. After the last 9 months of painful work situations, it will be great to see how God works in the midst of all this change.

Jacob went and got assessed by a developmental pediatrician because we have been having some severe behavioral issues the last 6 months. It is even affecting his preschool activities too. Any way, the physician said that she felt he has a great need to be in control (tell me about it!) and he has a lot of anxiety when things start getting out of his control. I had actually been reading a little about this for a month or two and was starting to wonder if he was anxious. She recommended getting some tools from seeing a therapist to work on behaviors and self-soothing for Jacob. He has been in a really good phase the last month or so, so it has been much easier around our home. He is so sweet and charming and affectionate these days. A big change from 2 months ago, when I was pulling my hair out! Please be praying for us as we attempt to raise him in a manner that will help him succeed in life and relationships.
