The Good News: Matt got 28/30 on his big paper that he was writing awhile ago. He did awesome and the professor was really impressed. It was really nice way to brighten the day while he is studying for exams. He has already had a few late nights. But on saturday after his exam we had such a nice evening. We sat there and had a nice bowl of ice cream. We had such a nice time sitting there talking and sharing... which was exactly what I needed.
The Bad News... I lost my job. I have work until the end of may and then I am hoping to have a new job because the prospect of being unemployed is really scary. I was already looking on the job bank and there are two GOOD daycares hiring right now. So now the mad scramble to get my resume in and try and convince them with a peice of paper that I am the one they should be hiring. My boss said that I could use her as a reference so that is good that I have someone here that can vouch for my reliability and hard work.
I am not looking forward to starting all over again at a new job. trying to build brand new realtionships with parents and co workers.. Meet new kids.. that is an easy part. It's just so hard. The unfairness of it all hurts too.. .but it makes sense that she keeps her niece instead of me. She just gets so many perks by keeping her and she is helping her sister too. It makes me feel good that family is coming first for her because it means that to some people in the world that is still so valued. Money is important too... and I am more expensive. I'm going to be ok. I really am. But I need your prayers, There are going to be so many choices and I desire with all my heart to choose the right one and go with God at my side.
Thanks for your thoughts, support and prayers. You have no idea of their value. I love you all so much and thanks for reading. Don't forget to pray for matt's exams too.
Love you all!
Amanda and Matt!

That's great news for Matt, and not the greatest for you, but where a door closes a window always opens.

And Amanda, don't worry about the money, I'm sure God has His reasons for bringing this about right now. Every cloud has a silver lining, we just have to see IT, rather then the dark cloud. Hang in there, see you this weekend. Love, DAD.
