Chicago update

Ok, so as of right now we are all holding our breath. At this point we are having to wait until Louie returns to Chicago tomorrow and speaks with his boss about the reality of our situation. What situation? Well the fact that the market is so bad to sell homes right now and even more so here in Florida. The offer the company gave us for our house was based on Fair Market Value, so it was below what we owe for the house.

The "Relocation Specialist" has given us the current Market Analysis in our neighborhood, so we can put it for Sale but even that seems to be low. So with that truth in front of us, we have to ride this out before we can proceed with our move to Chicago.

Upon Louie's return, he will be presenting this dilema to his boss. Many things can happen, if their interest is REALLY to have Louie there then I am sure that they (BP) will come up with a solution. Otherwise, they can just decide to have him work remotely as he does each time that he comes here to visit with us. So all fingers & toes are crossed right now, in hopes that we can remain here for many reasons, family, friends, the kids schools, our house. However, if God's will is for us to be up there in Chicago then I am sure everything will work out.

So when you are all in prayer, send a prayer up for our family. That no matter what the final outcome is, it is one in which we can all be together again.

We thank you all in advance for your prayers!

MY DEAR EVELYN, LOUIS AND KIDS;

I DEFINETELY KNOW BETTER THAN ANYONE ELSE WHAT YOUR DILEMMA AND CONCERN IS ABOUT THE MOVING TO CHICAGO. LET ME ASSURE YOU THAT GOD IS DEFINETELY IN CONTROL AND THAT HE WILL PUT ALL THE PIECES TOGETHER AT THE RIGHT TIME AND MAKE THINGS HAPPEN FOR HIS PURPOSE. HE DID GOT THIS JOB FOR LUIS AND WE KNOW IT WAS HIM, SO HE IS NOT A GOD OF CONFUSSION OR DIVISION.

I MYSELF PRAY EVERYDAY FOR YOU GUYS AND EVEN THOUGH I AM GOING TO MISS YOU TERRIBLY MOSTLY THE LITTLE ONE THAT STOLE MY HEART FROM THE TIME HE WAS BORN, I CAN ONLY ASK GOD TO DO WHAT IS RIGHT FOR ALL OF YOU AND BRING PEACE ABOUT IT. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH AND PRAY FOR YOU,

LOVE YOU, MOM FEBE
