I got a call from Ross on Friday, "Hey beautiful. You might want to start packing. We're moving to Seattle!"
He was in Seattle for the weekend interviewing for a job, and within hours, they had offered it to him. This was the moment we had prayed for - a way to Seattle. We had prayed for the will of God - not knowing what it might be - if we would move to Seattle and work a full time job or if we would try to raise financial support before moving -- but we trusted that God would make it clear. It was clear - we were moving cross country, and we didn't have much time. Ross had to start his job in 10 days.
I blinked and the house was packed and empty, and Elliot and I were waving goodbye to Ross as he pulled out of the driveway in our old, white Geo Metro. With 3000 miles ahead of him, we were praying the car would continue its standing history of taking us where we needed to be.
It felt like only moments later (lots of blinking..oh how the tears flowed) Elliot and I were saying goodbye to our beloved neighborhood, community, friends and family, and were boarding a plane - Washington bound.
