Our growing family

The last couple of months have been a roller coaster of emotions and I am reminded again of God's love for us.  He always has a plan even if we can't see it. About a month ago Blake and I were called about taking temporary guardianship of my cousin, Jonathon.  We knew right away we wanted him to come stay with us but we were a little nervous about our financial situation.  We had been trying to have another baby but with that you get 9 months to plan and save.  Could we afford another daycare payment on such short notice?  We spent the night talking about it and praying and weren't sure what we could do.  The next day in the mail our church bulletin had an insert about children and read "what can YOU do today to make a difference in a child's life."  That was all I needed to hear; it was God's answer to us.  Right now this little boy needed us and money was not what we needed to be worried about.  God would provide.  Welcome to the family Jonathon!
