It has been a whirlwind of a week. We have been waiting for days for final approval on our loan. We knew that we had to be out of our current house by 10 am on Good Friday morning and we were originally supposed to close on our new house at that time as well. But...the loan got delayed. We had to beg the sellers for an extension which they mercifully gave to us. We have been stashing our belongings everywhere. We have things in storage lockers, Jim's maintenance man's yard, my parents garage and my sister's garage and we rented a uhaul truck too. I hope we can remember where we stashed it all!!
The sale of our house went well and we decided that a hotel would give us a all break and allow the kids a mini vacation. We found out late today that our loan has been fully approved and our realtor (who we adore and recommend highly) managed to get us in on Monday afternoon for our closing. I don't remember the last time I was so excited about anything! Keeping my fingers crossed that all goes well and that this temporary stint of homelessness will be a distant memory!
Someday if you want a good story of how God is good, patient and merciful let me know. We have watched as every obstacle was moved for us. On this Good Friday I can truly say that God is alive and still in the business of making miracles happen!
