I have abandoned the blog but now have returned. After a short stint in Fresno working for Wells Fargo I lost my job and we moved back to Merced. For the past couple of years I have been doing everything I can to change careers and become a physician assistant. Please check out the following blog that is documenting my career change: http://physicianassistantpath.blogspot.com/
In the next few months we will be moving to Florida as we embark on the new adventure in our life. The pa program is 27 months and upon completion I will evaluate my options and decide where I want to practice as a pa. Looking back on the past two years I feel extremely blessed. I have been confused as I felt divine direction in our life as we moved to Clovis to start my new position, but after being let go after a short time working there my faith was tested. Why did I feel good about moving there? What do I do now? As I think about everything that happened I am grateful for everything that happened. I have been blessed to leave a job profession and enter a new profession that will better align myself with the goals and aspirations I want for my family and I. At times I was filled with anger, hatred, embarrassment, depression, confusion, etc. I guess what I've learned is that life is not what I expected and the unexpected is sure to happen. The important thing to do is to have faith and stay committed to the things that are most important. Live obediently and ask for direction from God.
The most important thing that has happened in our family since the last post is the birth of our new son Matthew Treyson. He is now 5 months old and growing everyday. We now have three boys and they are awesome.
Our son Andrew has had his share of medical issues lately. The latest is that he is farsighted. We noticed a few months ago that every once in awhile he would look almost cross eyed when looking at near objects. We took him to see the doctor and he was diagnosed as being farsighted. We received the glasses today and he immediately said that he could see better, and that things aren't as blurry. The challenge now will be to see if he can avoid breaking or losing the glasses. He says he looks like a scientist... What do you think?
