Twister

Sometimes life hits like a whirlwind. The past 6 months have been like this. The most recent development is that due to the budget constraints of my employer I find myself needing a job. To be honest, I'm scared. I know, I know. I'm supposed to "have faith" and "trust God" and all of that. And I'm trying to. I am realizing that doing this is a moment-by-moment process. It can't be done all at once.

The job I had was great. It afforded so much flexibility and I could be home with Jadyn most of the time. Now I think I will most likely need to get a conventional 40-hr job and Jadyn will be in full-time daycare.

Now I'm working really hard on looking forward to seeing how God is going to choose to provide for us. Please, if you're a praying person, shoot one up for us.

Amanda, I'm still praying for you. I've been busy since we started back to life last week, but call me if you need to. Love,Kim

Thinking about you.

Amanda, that is such scary news. I think that is how I felt when Ducky died and we had to leave her house and get a mortgage and I knew it probably meant full time care for both. It hasn't, it's meant more care than I would like, and very very long hours for me in order to do my work and care for them. But it has made me appreciate my time with them even more.

I will pray for you. Keep us posted.
