Jessie's big news.

So I've been not mentioning this for the past two weeks, so as not to jinx it, but prepare yourselves for awesome news: Jessie is getting a new job! Today is his last day at his current job, and on Monday he starts at a company called @task (pronounced at task. Confusing, eh?). His last job was pretty good to him, and he did good work, but it was time for a change. His official title at the new job will be Corporate Marketing Specialist. Which sounds cooler than Stay At Home Mom, but I still contend I have the more awesome job. Because I can take naps and my boss sings Mary Poppins to me and gives me hugs when I'm feeling sad. Take that, Jessie.

Anyway, we're pretty excited for the change and grateful there was an opportunity for Jessie to find a job with a little more room for growth, even though the job market isn't great. You can't complain when some people are struggling to find one decent job, so at the risk of sounding much too mushy and serious for this blog, we feel very blessed. And as a bonus, Jessie gets to come home early today and help Madeline and I get over our cabin fever (sickness having kept us from going anywhere or doing anything for a week, and we're itching to go cow-tipping or something.)Can you say family date night?
