Wahoo!

Dear friends and family,

The 2006 Daum Job Search has officially ended! The day before Thanksgiving I received - and accepted - a job offer! It is with a company that works with book publishers to design, edit, and create educational children's books. The company is really small - it will be 4 people including myself - and I will be the production artist/designer for the company. I will probably start off doing lots of layout stuff for the books, but as I am at the company longer it will progress into more creative work, and potentially some illustration. I am really excited about this opportunity! Since it's such a small place, I will have lots of input, and be able to have a great deal of variety in my work, which I like. The location is great, too - it's only 15-20 minutes away from our apartment. I'm not sure what day I start yet - I'll find that out this week.

The amazing thing about this job is that I applied for it way back in July, and the owner of the company put it on hold until now, and contacted me once it became available again. The right job has been there all along, things just had to fall into place for me to get it! Jason and I are so excited about how blessed we have been throughout the move/job search/everything! God has provided for us in every way, with perfect timing. Thank you to everyone who has prayed, hoped, asked, or otherwise supported both of us in our job search!
