Four and A Half Months and Some Change

"Time flies like the wind, fruit flies like bananas."
Our baby boy is 4 1/2 months old.  I (Gary) am 26 years old.  Allison is 24 years old.  That means if we don't have another kid we'll be empty-nesters at 44 and 42...still in our prime!  However, our first pregnancy and first baby has been easy - which makes us think they'll all be like this - which makes us want to have more.  I know we're naive, but it's hard not to be.   We're having a lot of fun right now.

Change is a coming with our family - mainly myself.  I've spent the past two years working with Fort Bend Young Life and it's been a great experience.  I was approach a while back about taking a job with a church here in Sugar Land as their Director of Student Ministry.  After much prayer, thought, talking with Allison, and interviewing I decided to accept the job which begins June 1st.  I'm excited and the opportunity and look forward to working with the pastor, other staff, and volunteers.  Young Life has been great to Allison and I, and we'll still be involved, but it will sorely be missed.  Shout out to Tig, Ali, Dana, and the committee for taking care of us so well.  

I'll post more about the new job later.
