Active Duty???

Well... as we look at all the options that lay ahead of us, one seems to stand out more than the others. That's the option to go Active Duty. Next weekend when Rick has Drill again in St Louis he will talk to his unit's Retention Officer about the possibility of going Active Duty with it IN HIS CONTRACT that Ft Leonard Wood would be his first duty station. If that happens, we would be here for aprox 3 years, at least. Then we'd be moving wherever else Uncle Sam wants to send us. That option sounds better and better every time I think of it. We would be able to live on Post which would take away the many fears and insecurities I have living here on Rt 66. And while the housing on post is old... I think the oldest housing there is STILL a good 50 years newer than the house we're in now! Plus it would help with our transportation issue (only having 1 car) if everything was close, as it is on Post. The possibility is REALLY excited and REALLY appealling to me... but we want to be sure it's what is in God's will. Please continue to pray for us as we search for the direction God wants us to go.
