Well....

Is it too much to say I still believe?  The way this whole thing came down has strengthened my faith more than anything.  God is always watching out for me. For us.  There are too many little details that He worked out to make this the right time to come out, that I cannot share them all.  I will give you a little time line, however:

First, what you did not know is that I came out to a ward member about a month ago.  He is 19 and not on a mission, and I was prompted to talk to him.  He is also the Bishop's son.  Last Monday I decided to add a new moho friend to facebook and begin chatting.  My wife gets on my laptop at home to check something on facebook that I had not shared with her.  I had never done this before.  Wife sees my chat.  I arrive home after the kids went away with her BFF.  There is some discussion, followed by a night and a day of hell.  Wednesday comes around and as I had no one to talk to, I had called Bishop's son, who promptly (and rightly told his dad of our problem)  Bishop called me, we all agree to meet.  It went very well.  On Thursday, there just happened to be a meeting in the region on SGA.  My wife and I attended with about 6 other guys, including Bishop's son and mom.  So, now she knows too and my wife can have someone else to relate to.  Who knew?  God is great. 

So, basically more people know, and I am less "on my own" than I ever imagined I would be after starting this blog a relatively short time ago.  I am certainly not coming out to the world, but strangely, I am not as bothered or worried now that it has happened.  I love my wife, I am not going anywhere, and because she loves me more than I deserve, we are going to make it. 

As a side note, for Father's Day my wife got me the sheet music books to Les Mis and Wicked.  Have you noticed how I love that music?  My wife ROCKS!
