Paul is finished with his oral defense!!!! Hallelujah!




Paul, heading in for his oral defense!




The supportive wife tagging along! :-)


The very happy Paul, and the thrilled Arden! Can you see the stress has lifted?

And now on to all that the Lord has for us in the next season!


We are REJOICING today for Paul (and for me) at his completion of his portfolio oral defense for his Masters in Elementary Education! At this writing, he is finishing a short paper, the very last thing he must do to complete this diploma!

The journey is nearly complete, and I am so very proud of my husband! The spiritual battle this fall has been intense, with the enemy trying to come in and bring doubt and discouragement, but with the prayer cover of many of you in the body of Christ, and Paul leaning hard into Jesus through it all, HE DID IT!!! My heart is swelling with pride and joy for him!

Not only did he finish, but he received a 100% on his portfolio and his oral defense! Let me boast just a little bit more on his behalf, since he will never do so himself: he never received anything less than As throughout his Masters program.

We are celebrating tonight, going out to dinner and then to see Handel's Messiah at the Kaufmann Performing Arts Center here in Kansas City! Can't wait for the Hallelujah chorus! :-)
