Reality Check.....this is painful

So, two weeks ago Wes' transmission goes out and the estimate is more than we paid for the car............Then, Cori has her surgery. OK, imagine a three year old attached to a foley catheter in a bucket because it leaks......for 5 days. Ask any three year old to sit still for that long, even assuming they speak English, and you know you have a disaster in waiting.
Last night, close to 11 pm, I step in water in a downstairs closet. The water filtration system has been leaking for many days. Wes goes to check on it, sees a spider on the wall, hits it, and the s
wall caves in from water rot..........
I have to pick Katherine up from school and come home to find Cori in a huge Cinderella costume. Who did that? Then she announces she must go poo............Imagine a mad three year old on a potty with a Cinderella costume bunched up all around her.....then she gets mad at me...and she begins to kick the bucket that holds her catheter bag.......

Later, when the repair team is here, she melts down completely and screeches for an hour. Social services is sure to call tomorrow.....but they will bring her back after a single day! She is so angry she is spitting!!!!!


Either you laugh or you cry or you do both at the same time. We trust all day long in God's provision for all of these things and more. The kid is rescued! She is ours! Nothing can change that!

Ands if it costs the farm....what farm???....we KNOW that God will provide!!! It is so exciting to know we will laugh our way, praise our way, to seeing His provision!
