Answered Prayer - Babysitter


I am so thankful, we managed to find a babysitter for the 28th of July! This last week, as I have been calling around looking for an adult friend to come and stay, I had no luck. Two of our friends, who are both the wonderful motherly type, were moving on the very weekend that we needed care. Then family was all tied up and other friends were just not available. Yesterday, I was feeling a bit low for a moment. I knew it would all work out, but I was feeling a bit dejected cause it wasn't falling into place and usually I have big kids to help babysit, but right now they are away at camp for the next 5 weeks!

I could have brought in a teenager to watch the kids, but since we had to leave so early and come back so late, it was getting really complicated. I also had options to send the kids out, but Briton is an escape artist and he, alone, was my big concern and no friends had real fenced yards!

Then today, I was talking to a lady from our church and asked her if she would consider watching the kids and she was so wonderful! Not only did she say yes, she also said she would come over here for the entire time, which means our kids don't even have to leave their own beds, and there is a fence to keep Briton safe!!! To top it all off, she won't even accept a penny! Every little bit is a blessing in financing this adoption!

Why did I doubt! God is good ALL THE TIME!
