As most of you know, Paul switched from the Army to Air Force 5 years ago. In doing so, he felt like he gave up the chance to ever make the rank of Colonel. In our world he was going to stay Lt. Colonel until he finished his career and we would stay in Denver. Yesterday, when the exec team at Buckley AFB met, they handed him "his wings" or eagles which means he made promotion to Colonel, which is a HUGE promotion! I am so proud of him, but we both attribute it to a fun God miracle. We have prayed so much about all of this, so know this is God's will, though I think both of us were excited to just stay where our heart is...Colorado.
As far as where we will be moving this summer...it is getting decided this week...pray we CAN stay in Denver even with his promotion!
