Work From Home

Early this month I began working again from home.  We were so thankful when God presented this opportunity.  It has been a huge blessing, and just one more way in which God has shown His provision for our family.

My one and only client is the same wire manufacturer I worked for several years back, but I haven't had any work since shortly before Ali was born.  They are also the same factory where both my father and my husband worked for over a decade.  (Well in fact most of my siblings have worked there too at one time or another.)

My sole job is to translate my client's customers' needs into the format the production floor needs to make the part.  The job consists completely of computer work, and I thoroughly enjoy it.  I use both AutoCAD, Excel, Adobe Acrobat and a large percentage of it is computations.  It really fits my personality and strengths very well!

I am spending only 2-3 hours every afternoon at the computer.  I set my own hours and the majority of the work I also set my own deadlines.  It has been somewhat challenging to reorganize our schedule, but it is actually working very well.

Praise God for His perfect provision!!!

Blogs, Blogs, and More Blogs...

We have suddenly become a blogging family. :-D  I have been doing a lot of work this month on revamping and creating our blogs.

The children are very excited to now have their own blog now!  The older children are being given weekly topics for their creative writing blog posts.  We have found this is a great way to motivate them and improve their writing skills.

My beloved is also in the process of starting his own blog Overflow Sincero. His blog was started with the idea that it would be a great vehicle for him to record his thoughts and share them with his children.  Of course everyone else is invited to get to know him better in the process too.

And finally there are my blogs.  Alegria Elizabeth is where I have recorded the life and death of our precious Ali.  I will continue to share our journey of grief there.

And now I also have this blog But Joy Cometh.  Joy truly does come in the morning!!!

WELCOME!!!

I am so excited to finally get started on this new blog!!!

I have a lot of hopes in starting this new blog.  First I intend for this be a wonderful place for me to record God's grace and mercy woven through our family's story as we journey through this life together.  I also hope this blog will be a great outlet for my thoughts by voicing those words which are sometimes difficult for me to express verbally. And finally I hope this blog will be encouragement and blessing to those who read it!!!

We have had so many wonderful adventures this summer and fall, and one of the first things I plan to do is to recall some of them here so that they are not forgotten.

Thank you for visiting!  And I hope you come again soon!!!
