We have been so blessed during this journey and now even more with Cody's job. Somehow during our first year of marriage while both of us were still in school we managed to make it through financially. That in and of itself was provision from the Lord. There were a couple of times when we literally gathered up textbooks and things to go sell! The next two years while Cody taught in Alamo Heights and I subbed, I never really understood how we always had at least a little money left over each month. It just didn't make sense. Whenever we would try to analyze our earning and spending, we should have been in the hole each month, or so we would predict. But we never were -what an amazing blessing.
Now during this period we have been blessed with the ability to let Cody go back to school to get his master's degree while I teach in NEISD. At this point there are only 7 and a half weeks left until Cody graduates in May! And most recently we have been immensely blessed with Cody's job. Being hired before graduation and not having to go through a crazy and stressful period of job hunting and interviews is an amazing blessing and provision. Not only that, but Cody was actually offered two jobs at great companies, and so he had a choice about what offer to take. I hope we never diminish or forget how God has blessed and provided for us during these different periods.
The next couple months until graduation will be stressful with Cody working full-time and finishing his classes at night. I am so proud of him for his focus and hard work both at school and at work with the Census Bureau last summer and his internship at Rackspace that have now led to this full-time position.
Congrats, Loves, on your awesome job and your (almost) master's degree! I love you and am extremely proud of you.
How awesome!!! Congratulations Cody!
