A New Endeavor


<---- Todd & Jon...soon to be co-workers...


Well, as you know, Jon has been working on his own for the last couple of months now, doing renovations. And it has been so amazing for me to see him finally loving his job. He loves the flexibility of "being his own boss." Quite frankly, who wouldn't? But today he finished the last reno he was working on and will start the next step of his "business." This last week he became the official owner of "Esau Developments." Sounds pretty professional doesn't it ;) (I have to admit I am pretty proud of him.) But the real reason for the official business name is because he will begin doing residential framing tomorrow with his good friend Todd. And with the business name, he can sub-contract himself out. He's pretty excited about finally starting work with Todd and I am sure that they'll have a lot of fun together--and hopefully make a little money while they're at it :)
The only part of this that isn't ideal is that we are working around one vehicle right now. Up until this point, we've been able to make it work. But with Jon commuting to Abbotsford, and me still needing a way to get to work everyday, we are in a bit of a pinch. We've been trying to find a second vehicle for a while now but haven't had any luck yet. Jon is actually out in Vancouver right now, looking for one but I kind of doubt he'll find one in time for work tomorrow ;) So if you could maybe just send up a prayer for us, we'd sure appreciate it. God has always been good to us and I know he'll help us figure this all out, but we could still definitely use your prayers. Not only to find a car but also just for Jon and his new "endeavor." Thanks again... I'll be sure to keep you updated.
