Change

So I know I just did a blog post not too long ago, but so much has changed since then. In reality it feels like a lifetime ago that I wrote that update. We were just getting into the swing of Justin's new schedule. We were anticipating all the fun things we could do on those extra days off. More time we could spend with our families, more time we could spend with each other. Justin went to work Monday morning just like he usually does at 8 AM. Around 9:30 Justin called to tell me that he and everyone else had been sent home and that he would be home shortly. We were told it was just for the day and that they were trying to figure everything out and had high hopes that everything would be back up and running on Tuesday. That night I was pretty restless to say the least. What if things could not be fixed? Would we be able to survive? Around 6 I got sick of the tossing and turning and had Justin check his email and see if there were any updates on the situation. He did and there was an email waiting for him. My heart sunk as I was told that the whole company had gone under and that he was indefinitely laid off. I just started to cry. Not just for us, but also for all our friends who were reading the exact same thing. Seasons of Hope was what brought us to Pocatello and to each other. It also brought us all of our closest friends. All of our friends who have helped us to be better and helped us get to the place we are at today. I always knew Seasons of Hope would not be in our lives forever. It was still so hard to watch everything come crashing down in a matter of hours. I am grateful that at least I get to take those friends with me and the wonderful man I met there almost two years ago. So now it is time for us to start a new chapter. I feel hopeful that this one will lead us into even greater things. So for now Justin is on the hunt for a new job. He will find something and do great at whatever he does. Other than that we have been enjoying the silver lining of lots of quality time together. On Wednesday we will be finding out if we are having a boy or a girl. So check back soon and I will try to keep things updated.
