Eternally Grateful

I just feel the need to mention how truly grateful I am for the sacrifices made by my family members and frirnds to help Savannah and I have a better life. I have the most supportive family who loves me, even when I don't love myself.

No names, no specifics, but if you read this, you have most likely done something for which I am grateful and I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Even as I try to form words to explain how I feel, I cannot. I will just say that I thank God daily for those people who He has put in my life to help me along the way and I thank you too.

God has smacked me upside the head...

And I love it!

I have been trying so hard to find a good option for Savannah's summer care. Fun Company is being offered at Charlotte Park Elementary, which is a nice school but for some reason, I have just been very apprehensive about signing her up for it. I have had no specific issue with Charlotte Park, just a gut feeling that it wasn't the best place for Savannah to be. I have also known that if I don't hurry up and sign her up for something, I will lose my job for calling in sick for three months while she stays at home. And yet, I have continued to drag my feet.

I have prayed and prayed for God's guidance on this all weekend and this morning, He delivered! In fact, I feel like He smacked me with His guidance. This morning, as I was making the mommy loop, I drove by Nashville Christian School, as I do every day. This morning I happened to look over to notice a big banner that reads "SUMMER CAMP, NOW ENROLLING". I thought to myself, really, why didn't you think of this before?!? I googled their website and found the curriculum, daily devotionals included, prices, hours, any information I could possibly need. I called to see if they still had room and sure enough, they do. And they offer more than what is listed on their website. The price is only $20 more than Fun Company and they have an amazing, structured program. Since my precious little baby girl needs structure, this is perfect!

Anyway, I just had to share my little run-in with the Lord at work in my life. It amazes me when He works so obviously and He knows, I need obvious! Subtle hints do not work with me.
