The peak

It's no secret that the last four years have been a bit taxing on our whole family. It's been a climb of sorts. When the King changed careers all those years ago we knew it would be tough. I never could have guessed just how tough it would be. There were many times when we both wanted to just give up. Finding a local job as an electrical apprentice that pays well enough was just impossible. We chose to stick it out. Mostly because we had given up on so many other things in the past we just couldn't see that being the right thing to do.

Today made it all worthwhile. The King finally acquired enough hours to take his test. He passed and is now a Journeyman Electrician. This will open many new doors for us. Sure, we'll have to be patient, but it feels so good to get to the top of the mountain. It's been a rough climb and now I'm just hoping the plateau lasts awhile.
