Tyler took the ASVAB again... but unfortunately he missed passing it by one stinking point. He was pretty bummed out. So, he will take it again this month. Already, he has been studying like a mad man, and I am proud of him for it. He has to get it passed this time or he can't take it again for six months, eeek!
When Tyler didn't pass for a second time, a certain someone (who I will not name), said to him maybe this was the Lord's way of telling him that he wasn't supposed to go into the Air Force. This completely disgusted me. We did not go into this decision, to go into the AF, lightly. We prayed for weeks before we made our final decision, and we have always felt supported by the promptings of the Holy Ghost since we made that decision. Just because you face opposition, does not mean you have made the wrong decision, or that Heavenly Father is necessarily telling you to give up. If, through prayer, you still feel right about something, aren't you supposed to push forward through opposition?? I don't recall anywhere in the scriptures where it promises that our lives will be all sunshine and lollipops just because we make the right decision. I do know, however, that the Lord has promised us that when we make the right choices, he will support us through our trials. Every time Tyler and I pray about the AF, we get the same answer, that it is what Tyler is supposed to do. We will not let the doubts and negative attitudes of others get in the way of our goal.
Eesh! Now that I have gotten my rant out I feel a little better. :) Grandpa and Grandma Hunsaker have been in town visiting. Grandma went to Tacoma to see her daughter graduate college, so Grandpa has been here on his own. He is so funny, he has been pretty out of sorts without her here! Good thing Dad keeps him busy with projects in the yard. Tomorrow we are having some of Dad's family here for dinner, we will see how that goes... why does there always have to be drama??
Poor Ty is working today, he is going to be one tired guy for Sunday. I will have to make sure he stays awake during church!!
