Prayers for the interview. Let us know how it went.
Also, about the fire...we had a close one here too this past year. Theboy tossed one of thegirl's shirts up in the air (because he was mad at her) and it landed on one of those halogen lamps. The lamp was turned on, but on very low. Days later, minutes after getting home from church, the smoke detectors went off. We didn't even smell smoke. So, we went around looking for the cause and ended up tossing the whole lamp outside. Theboy was in tears for quite some time. We had the talk about how bulbs can get very hot and how anger at someone makes God sad. We were very thankful and still are. Thenewboy tried to tell thegrandparents about it later, but sometimes you can't completely understand him. They wondered what he was talking about and said he has such an imagination. :-)

That's the thing, you know...we didn't know what to do as far as scolding Joshua. He didn't deceive us. He told us what he was doing and we basically let him because we misunderstood what he was doing and weren't paying attention!
After we got things under control, he was standing in the yard shaking all over and saying "I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry!" over and over. Steve told him "I'm in worse trouble than you are." and kept glancing at me expecting a gasket to be blown any minute. But I didn't even feel angry...just relieved and shaken.
The interview went well. I'll tell you more tomorrow, but we're optimistic.
