It has been quiet a journey the last few months since this idea came to him and there was a lot of work to do to make it happen. He had to take 90 credit hours, take the Broker's test, have three years experience and enough home sales, and then fill out an application and wait and see if the State accepted it.
The credit hours were the worst and he spent many nights on his computer in our room.
Oh... there he is crying over it now!
We went to Grand Rapids together and he took his 3 hour Broker's test. When he passed in just over a hour we got to stop and celebrate with a date on the way home.
The next project is his office, which used to be the garden shed alongside our house. It is almost finished and it may end up being nicer then our home! I got some beautiful landscaping in front of my house out of the deal so I am quite pleased with the office.
Doing large house projects and being burdened studying, reading and less time for family and fun can be hard. I am learning that is it is good for me to be quiet and to watch, encourage and pray. Those are the best things I can give my husband. My opinion is amazing (I think), but in the end he is a smart man and he will make good choices. He may not do things the same as I would, but when I allow him to do whatever he wants... he thrives... and we don't fight... and things turn out really well. That is why I married him, right? I thought he was the greatest thing since sliced bread... and it turns out that was true. He still is that man, even if 5 years of marriage happens.
I am so proud of you Babe! I am grateful for the growth in our friendship through this. I can't wait for that office to be up and running!
You are the smartest man I know.
