Good News

Last Thursday we received some good news. Linden officially has an internship. There are three great things about it. 1. It is a PAID internship which is something that we were really praying for. 2. It is only eight weeks, unlike some of them that are twelve. 3. It is in a Nuclear power plant so he will get a variety of different kind of experience making it easier for him to find a full-time job. There is only one downside. The internship is in Richland, Washington. It starts on May 3 and ends on June 25. So, he will be going there by himself for those eight weeks. (Well, he will have a classmate that will be there also.)
I am going to miss him terribly. It just doesn’t seem worth it to drag me and a 5 week old baby and a four year old and a two year old 9 hours away for 8 weeks to temporary housing. So, we will be staying home while he rooms with his classmate. The boys are going to miss him also. They love playing with their Daddy. It is such a huge blessing for him to get such a great internship. We are looking forward to a couple of visits home from him and maybe I will get really brave and attempt to drive there by myself with three little kids.
Another blessing from this internship Linden’s uncle was recently diagnosed with cancer and lives in WA. Hopefully Linden will be able to go and visit him while he is there.

Congratulations on the internship!!! Give us a call if you need to get out of the house, or need the boys to come and play. :)
