Eric had always planned on graduating next May. He pushed through his first year of seminary like a champ taking more classes than anyone would dream of taking in order to graduate "on time" with our grand plan. All of that was well and great until the seminary broke his thesis class in to two terms so it is impossible for him to graduate next May. Which is sort of a blessing in disguise. This past year was hard on him and on our marriage, so it is nice that he can slow down his pace and spread it out over two years.
He has worked part-time this past year in order to have more time to focus on his studies. Now that he is spreading things out, we are looking in to some full-time positions. He really enjoys his job at the church, but he only works 19 hours a week. Now that he has the time to dedicate to a full-time position, it is definitely a better option for us. Now on to the nerve wrecking part of finding jobs to apply for and getting interviews :)
Blessings in disguise are my favorite :) It's awesome that yall have the hearts to be thankful even when your plans get messed with!
