Erin's Prayer

We are still waiting to hear if Colonel Sanchez was able to talk the AF folks into letting Mario out of Communications to teach at the Academy in Colorado Springs. If not, we have a backup list of places that we may want to go. They include places like Maryland, Illinois, Okinawa , and possibly Germany. Maryland would be my top pick so far. It is outside the city, so the commute for Mario wouldn't be bad. The official list of job openings comes out tomorrow.

After FHE last night, Mario asked the big kids to pray about our next assignment. This morning he asked Erin if she prayed. She confidently announced that yes she did pray and we will either be staying here in Tucson or going to Colorado Springs. I laughed aloud (which didn't go over well with her). I asked how she knew. She said those were the places she asked about and she was confident Heavenly Father would give her what she asked for. I said what if I prayed for Maryland or Okinawa. She told me, "Dad said that Heavenly Father answers kids' prayers more than the adults' prayers."

Well, if that is true, I sure hope we are going to Colorado Springs, because I already have it in my head that we are leaving Tucson the day school is out next May.
