Positive Thinking Works

We have good news. No, no baby yet. To be honest, the adoption process is no longer the center of our universe. We have realized in the past few months that it's going to happen when God says so, and there's absolutely no reason to miss out on all the other "little things" occurring on a daily basis. The adoption process has definitely been a wonderful experience for me because I'm learning to be more positive and patient. You can ask Scot, patience and positive thinking have not always been strong characteristics for me.

Scot was hired for his job. Well that's what I call it. Scot has been in a very long interview process for the past two weeks. We found out yesterday morning that he has officially been hired by a thriving company. It's a wonderful company and a wonderful opportunity for Scot. We are both very excited. We both did thorough research of the company and asked many questions to make sure this would be a good move.

He will be using his health care and sales background to sell splints to neuro patients in Fort Worth and surrounding area doctors, therapists, and patients. He starts next week and at the end of April he will go to New Orleans for a week of training. He will receive a base salary with a monthly car allowance and quarterly bonuses the first year. Starting the second year, and every year to follow, he will receive raises and commission in addition to the car allowance and quarterly bonuses. For the first time in a very long time, Scot has an opportunity to grow with a company and make his way up the ladder.

For the first time in months I was able to sleep through the night. Of course I'm still tired and this weekend I will definitely be resting.

On another good note...my sister's baby shower is this weekend. We are all very excited. And many of you may not know, but my sister asked me to be her Lamaze coach. We went to the birthing class together and had fun. I'm very excited about being in the delivery room when my niece Kenna Cheryl Summers arrives in May.

I hope the rest of the week is wonderful for everyone and have a wonderful weekend.

Remember...
