funny...

God is so funny...well I don't know if it's funny exactly, but He definitely makes me smile so funny is the word I'm choosing. It's like all of the sudden He said--look at you two trusting and obeying me--I'm just going to keep pouring down blessings on you! One of our concerns in both of us being in Scotland County was finding childcare--someone we knew (at least a little) and trusted. Yesterday I just happen to be talking to the custodian and he mentioned a name to me that sounded familiar--someone who is opening a daycare this fall. I called my mom and it turns out they worked together at Glenwood Headstart for a few years--what a small world. So, I asked mom about her and she thought she'd be great. My next task was tracking down this woman--so today I asked Erin Tallman about her (the lady used to be a Frederick & so did Erin) and Erin told me she works right here in the school as their Parents as Teachers parent coordinator! All it took was me wandering down to her office (& catching her while she was in there). I explained our situation, told her I was due in December & that I'd heard she was opening a daycare. She said she'll be licensed in a couple of months and that it was true that she was leaving her PAT job to do a daycare. We are just about guaranteed a spot with her--an amazing blessing that we found someone close and someone we can trust! Thank you, Lord! Now all we have left is the house journey! (okay, probably not all we have left, because when one journey ends another begins, but you all have to admit it is falling into place for us).
