It has certainly been very exciting in the life of Whitney and I. I noted in my last few posts that I was finished with college classes and that I accepted a position with SABIC Innovative Plastics at their manufacturing plant in Mt. Vernon, Indiana. Now, I can gladly say that I am finished with college completely. I recently received confirmation of my graduation and, as far as I know, it will be with highest honor. I also took the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) Exam on April 12 in Athens, which is the first step, other than obtaining an engineering degree, to becoming a licensed engineer or professional engineer (P.E.). Needless to say, I am overjoyed that I don't have anymore studying or eight-hour exams in my near future. Since my Walk to Emmaus and other enlightening events in my life, I am able to truly realize and appreciate the gifts that God has blessed me with. Without Him and these skills, with which I have been undeservedly blessed, these milestones could not have been reached.



Our honeymoon in Gatlinburg, Tennessee will be a welcome break from all of the excitement we encountered throughout April and May. Before we head home to pack the last of our belongings and to attend my graduation commencement ceremony, we will spend a couple of days in Washington D.C. to see the sites and a good friend of mine from college.
Now that my blog is back up to speed, I want to mention something important that was brought to my attention. A very nice lady arrived at my house this past week to conduct a pre-move survey to determine what exactly Whitney and I will be taking with us when we relocate. We made small talk about the area to which we are moving, marriage, my job, etc. In the course of my explanation, I realized, with her help, how blessed I truly am. Do not get me wrong, I have not take everything in my life up to this point for granted. I just mean that there are times when I do not realize how good that I have it. It was one of those moments that struck me like lighting. I needed it.
