Things just seem to keep getting better. My oldest daughter, Catie, had been applying for summer work. The had applications at various places around the the area. Virginia, West Virginia and Maryland. But, she really had her heart set on one particular job. For reasons only, truly, known to her, this one job stood out from the rest. And she wanted it badly.
There was much competion for this job. A large number of applicants for relatively few spots. And she had her heart set on it.... Man, I prayed. I asked friends to pray. She had her heart set on it. So a few days ago she calls the house. She got an offer. Not from "THE" job. But from her second choice. What to do? She politely explained that she would love to work for them, but, was waiting to hear from "THE" job. She explained to the other potential employer why "THE" job was so important. The prospective employer was fully understanding and asked for a reply by the end of March. Catie was very pleased, but, still wanted "THE" job.
Well, today Catie calls me with obvious excitement and joy in her voice. She got "THE" job. "THE" one that she had her sights set on. I am so very happy for her. I'm still smiling ear to ear.
I've had to refer to it as "THE" job as there were many other applicants. They have not all been contacted to be informed wheter or not they've been hired. "THE" employer has asked Catie to give them two weeks to get all the notifications completed before she shares openly. But her family knows, and we could not be more happy or more proud!!!
LOVE YOU CATIE -- POPS
