I finally found a part time job so I can help earn money. It's at the same gas station here in Minersville that I was working at last year. It will be nice to only have a part time job so I can stay at home with Hayzen most of the time. I'll only be working three or four days a week and it will be from about 3:00 'til 9:00. Wendy is going to tend Hayzen until Matt gets home at nights. This is a blessing in our lives right now. Our goal is to be into a house by August. We are going to either build a small home or get a modular and put it on a basement. I don't think it is a coincidence that we chose August as our goal month.
Matt has been talking to a girl that he baptized on his mission this past week. She is coming to school at UVU in August and she has a little sister who will be a senior in high school. Their life story is not really a good one. When Matt was on his mission, he baptized them, their brother, their mom and their aunt. The girls and their brother are the only ones who are still going to church. They have lived with members, been in foster homes, and are now back with their mom but she is drinking again and back on drugs. She has been threatening to kick them out. So the girl who will be a senior is thinking of coming and living with us when her sister comes to college. Even though it's been slow going trying to get into a house, I feel like the Lord will bless us so that we have a chance to help this girl out. We have been so blessed in our lives and it will be wonderful to bless the life of someone else.
