How sweet it is....

to be loved by Tyler!

As you read below, last week was an important week. I had three interviews for audit internships with top accounting firms. About a month ago my mom bought me my first suit...a pinned striped black skirted suit. I planned to break out the suit for the interviews, and what is a suit without heels? I usually park about a 12 minute walk from campus...and the interview site was about a 10 minute walk from the buildings I am in on campus. So I was concerned about all of the walking. And no, wearing tennis shoes to walk around in with my suit was NOT an option.

Tyler had the day off so he drove me to campus, dropped me off, and picked me up at the end of the day. Campus is a 25 minute drive from our house on a good day. I realize more and more that it is the little things that Tyler does to show love. He didn't have to drive me in, he could have told me to stop being such a girl and wear different shoes...but he didn't! What a sweet man.

Later in the week he told me that he was trying to do anything to calm my nerves and make the week go smoothly. Wow, to put my needs ahead of his own for a week without me thinking about him much at all. How sweet it is to be loved by him...

I was selected for second round interviews with two of the firms. I have one in Boise on Tuesday and I fly to Spokane on Wednesday for a Thursday interview. I am thankful to the Lord for giving me the opportunity to interview...what a blessing!
