Good news. . .

We have some good news to share with everyone. First of all, Aidan passed his first swimming lessons. This is a huge deal to us because the first day he refused to do anything, he wouldn't even put his face in the water. By the end he was swimming like a pro and is already asking when he gets to go to the 'bigger boy' class!
Second good news is Steve moved to a new position at work. You could say it was a promotion. Not to long ago he applied for a supervisor becuase they were hireing a whole bunch, but he never recived a callback and was rather discouraged from it. When his bosses at work found out he never got called back, they put a good word in and today he got a phonecall that he starts work as a supervisor on monday. He has come a long way since we moved to Winnipeg. 6 months ago we didn't even know if he would have a job or much future with Canada post and didn't know if moving to Winnipeg would do much good and now he is a supervisor. Obviously it was the work of God.
Adjustment to the city is still taking time. I am not exactly attached to our new home yet and we really miss our big yard. But we at least know we will only live here a very short time. The way the whole job thing has worked out has been such a blessing because lately we have felt like so many curve balls have been thrown our way.
