Interview update

Stephen called as soon as his interview was over. He didn't have a very good feeling about immediately after the interview, but after he talked to me, his manager here called him. She said that it sounds good from the questions they asked and his responses. He was worried that the interview was pretty scripted and only lasted 45 minutes. She said that all interviews are supposed to last about that long and that shouldn't be a bad sign. She also said that since those managers have been talking to so many other people about Stephen that they may have already knows the "off-script" answers and just wanted to talk to him specifically about the job itself and not much about him personally.

Anyway, he now has about four hours to kill before his plane brings him home. As of right now, even if they offered him the job, we still don't know what God wants us to do. Neither one of us has any clarity right now, which we thought we would have (at least some) after the interview. But God knows when the best time to reveal His plan is, so we wait. Please keep praying. This is a HUGE decision for our family.

Hey, kiddos.
I know that this is an extremely stressful time for all of you. I'd say that I'm worried about you but somehow I don't. I've never known anyone in my life who handles adversity better than my daughter. It seems to make her stronger with each new wave. I'm so proud of the wife and mother she's become and especially for her care and concern as a daughter.
Whatever happens, I know you'll make the best of it and that you'll find happiness. Children are resilient and bend like grass in the wind. When it passes, they stand tall again in the sunshine. God bless you all in this time of change. I look at life as a series of chapters in a book. When one ends, a new one begins. I pray that your book has a happy ending. I'm certain in my heart that it will.
I love you all.
Dad
