And It All Comes together

Life in the Gleckler household has been full of change and anxiety so far this year. As thrilled as Erich and I were about moving to Twin, it has taken awhile for all the pieces of our life to settle into place. After months of waiting and anticipation things are finally coming together. I was telling my family that it felt like my birthday everyday of this week as I received good news after good news. We finally got the offer on our house in Grangeville, we made progress towards getting Jake on a routine/schedule, we locked in interest rates for our new house at a summer low (for those of you following interest rates you know that they have been swinging around like crazy the last several months), and last, but certainly not least, I got a job offer at a small law firm here in Twin. Our family has certainly been abundantly blessed and I am very grateful and humble. I feel sheepish for fretting so much when I should have had faith that all would work out. At any rate lots of prayers answered and hopes fulfilled in the Gleckler home.

And to top it all off I got to spend my birthday with Erich, a first in our marriage since he is typically off fighting fire this time of year. Now most of you would expect us to have done something adventurous to celebrate but this year the thing I wanted most was just to have dinner and a movie and time at home with my family so that is what we did. It's so fun watching Jake with his dad, he gets so excited to see him he squeals and flails and it's pretty darn adorable. And although he doesn't show it as much, Dad likes to be with Jake a whole lot too; they are pretty good buds those two.


As for Jake he now has two front teeth and two bottom teeth. He's not walking a whole lot yet but he is awefully energetic and curious, definitely my little explorer who doesn't care for kid toys as much as the other stuff he finds.
