Something to Celebrate

This picture above has nothing to do with this blog but I like having a picture on a blog post and this one was taken the day we found out good news #1.

GOOD NEWS #1

KEVIN PASSES HIS LAST CPA EXAM!  As you probably know, Kevin has been working on his CPA for quite awhile now.  He started really studying and taking tests as soon as he got the news (almost a year ago) that he would not have a job at Donan anymore in Louisville.  He passed the first 3 on the first try.  This last one took him 3 trys.  This last time he enrolled in the Becker class to help him understand anything he did not and it ended up being his highest score of all the tests he took.  So he is super close to being official.  To get your CPA in California you have to pass the California ethics exam.  So that is what he is doing.   Good news is that it is all online and the one fee he pays gets him 3 tries at the test.  After the CPA test this one will be a sinch.  After that it is just paperwork.  I'm SO SO SO proud of this guy.

GOOD NEWS #2

Kevin got a NEW JOB which he started June 28 at a CPA firm here in El Cajon.  It is closer to home than it was to drive to the trolley station.  This is also vital experience working at a CPA firm.  If he likes it wonderful, but it all opens door to so many more jobs if he does want his career to go a different path.  But so far so good.  He got the job through a guy in our ward whose dad is a partner in the firm.  It seems like Kevin is really enjoying it.  They do a lot of auditing for Charter schools and stuff and it will eventually include some traveling.  I'm excited about this new change to our life.  I hope that this roller coaster in our lives is crawling up for awhile because the down dips really have been throwing us off.  We are so blessed to have such wonderful family on both sides that have helped us and supported us through it all.  Thank you!!
