My Dad's a Geek

Oh, how we love Ben. But this onesie (compliments of Aunt Anna) is pretty funny. :) Let's just hope that the onesie status helps Daddy Ben get a job! :) The career fair was yesterday for Ben and he felt pretty encouraged by it. He's got some leads and actually is interviewing with a company here in Manhattan as we speak (GE Aviation I think it what's it's called). So there are some options out there that he's more excited about than others, but we're just praying that God would guide us where we are supposed to go next. He's now most excited about a job at Honeywell in Kansas City - something about engineering and optics - which would be a perfect fit for him based on his previous 50 years of education in physics and electrical engineering (Ok, it hasn't been that long) :) Also, he's got a phone interview with General Dynamics (where he actually interned two summers as a computer science major) within the next couple weeks too. That one is in Arizona, but they also have a site in Bloomington, Minnesota that he told them he was interested in. (I know Wendy, you're probably really excited here! I was too!) Honeywell and Lockheed-Martin are coming back to interview him on campus in March. So more waiting! Oh, great news too - the synagis is in my refrigerator! It came yesterday with no problems this time! PRAISE JESUS! Now home health is coming on Thursday afternoon to administer it and it'll be right at 28 days! Wahoo! Kim, our Parents as Teachers educator is coming on Thursday also! Fun fun!

  2. Oh, you'll have to tell me where she found that onesie. It'd be perfect for Jay, too! Prayers on the job front and congrats on the successful vaccine delivery this month.

  3. Ben and Mandy,
    We're praying for you on the job search. That's good that he has so many interviews and leads. We completely understand the waiting game. We are doing the same thing. :)
    Have a great weekend!
    Jill
