The Holiday season  is here, and it’s amazing to look back at our past year and look forward to what’s coming next! We’ve had some pretty significant milestones, mixed in with some major blessings and some not so major blessings. All that to say, we’re super excited about 2010..not only for this little boy gracing us with his presence, but to live the coming adventure that is our lives… trusting that the God who has brought us this far will see us through in His plans for us.

We’ve been praying for an answer to what to do with living here and more importantly Freddie’s job. We’ve had some amazing conversations over the last few months centered around our priorities, desires and what we feel God is doing in the midst of this life in Miami. Up until a week ago, we were still anxious and sort of in a holding pattern, waiting for God to reply with something other than wait..and now He’s done just that! Last week, Freddie was taken aside after a meeting with the HR director of the southeast region (in town from headquarters) praising him for his efforts on this current assignment and giving us some hope that our time here in Miami may be coming to a close sooner than even we’d hoped! So, all this to say…we’re still praying, asking for clarity and that everything will align in God’s timing yet again in order for this to work. The location of said job is not official…neither is the opportunity..but there is the HOPE of it all coming together. Whatever happens, we know our God is faithful and will trust His plan.

The thought of moving brings back leaving Madison about this time last year, and how oblivious we were to how wonderful we had it…as far as community goes. This is one of my biggest fears in moving, but to see how much our marriage has grown in our time here makes it every bit worth the gigantic change. Besides, we may not have time to make friends with little Charlie coming soon!

We hope you have a very Merry Christmas and that your 2010 is blessed beyond measure.

Much love,

Andrea, Freddie, Charlie & Tess Gibson
