Many of you have been asking what is the plan with Jonathan. Toward the end of our visit last fall, Howard's sister Trudy and her husband Alan offered for Jonathan to live with them for his Senior year and attend Yosemite High School. They did not realize we had been praying about different possible options for Jonathan. Since September 11, 2001 Jonathan has desired to go into the military and with the influence of David Jackson had decided he wanted to go into the Coast Guard. We came to the realization, Jonathan needed a year to transition from living and home schooling in Ecuador to joining the Coast Guard. As we have witnessed with our older kids, when God is part of the process then doors seem to open, with each obstacle that would come our way, God would provide a solution that at times was "out of the box". Trudy has been a huge advocate for Jonathan, as well as one of the counselors at the school. So, today Jonathan started his first day of school for his final year of high school. Howard and I are excited for him and feel confident this is all part of God's plan for our boy. Please pray for Jonathan during this time of transition and for the coming school year.
