A quick update ... I had a long update but the cache cleared it out and I lost it ... darned technology ...
Anyway, here are the quick hits

My wife and I have had a five year plan to get out of Louisiana and into a place that is more conducive to raising a large family with the support necessary to properly educate and form our children in the Catholic faith.

1. We are going to sell our current home, which we love. It is just too small.
2. We have signed a contract to have a home built in a neighborhood close to here. We will have almost twice as much room as our current home.
3. My near future with my current job is looking brighter. When I took the job it was for the pay increase and the flexibility to work at home on occasion. I had concerns about the stability of the position but it is looking more and more like those concerns will fall by the wayside.

1 & 2 above were totally a God thing. We had a six month plan to look for a place to live. This dropped in on us a little early. So much for comfort zone. I am going to miss our first home ...

Tonight my wife and I had a big kink thrown into our five year moving plan ....

We found a good school run by lay Catholics that appears to be faithful to the Magisterium of the Church. This gives us access to a significant number of families whose loyalties lie with Rome. It is about 1/4 mile from the entrance to our new neighborhood. We are in prayer on the matter, but this could be the answer to a significant amount of our prayers.
