House Update!!!

Isn't it funny how in the middle of victory and answered prayers how quickly we can become discouraged? We were originally set to close on our house on April 8th. Man we were excited, gung-ho, ready! As it turned out, our loan wasn't quite ready yet. Our mortgage broker was working on getting us a "Welcome Home" grant from the government that would be a down payment on our house. Even when we should have viewed that as the blessing from God that it was, we instantly became frustrated and discouraged. (And when I say "we" I mean mostly "me" LOL, Keith is not so quick to emotional outbursts as me.) We didn't know how long it would take the grant money to come in, and we had already turned in our 30 day notice here on the apartment. Now I am so happy to say that the money has come in, and we are set to close on our very first home on Monday, April 14!! God is so good to us. We are so thankful for this home that He has given us and for blessing us with this government grant as a down payment on it. Now the stressful part begins---packing and moving!!!! ;)
