Diapered blessings

I don't know most of y'all here, so just a little background, my husband lost his job in December we are living in our fourth home since then, we just opened a restaurant and I have four kids.

In order to save costs at the restaurant, I work a few days a week for free. And, something that doesn't really make sense, I pay a babysitter to watch my kids....so actually not really saving any money. But every once in awhile a dear friend will watch my kids. I feel guilty asking others to watch them for free because I am working but at the same time it has been since December that we have brought any money home, minus the two months I worked at the school.

So anyway, my friend offered to watch the kids, well I think I asked this time around but she has been willing to help out before. I dropped the kids off with some lunch, and big thanks, and she hands me a pack of diapers....which I so needed to buy but literally don't have any money to do so, and some laundry soap and dish soap, all things that I have run out of and she didn't know. My eyes welded up in tears as I said thanks, and ran out the door to work.

I truly felt blessed and knew that I was being watched out for in more ways than I had even known.....

Now to find a plumber to unstop the kitchen sink so I can finish washing the dishes....

  1. How wonderful to know that Somebody is looking out for you.

    By the way-if it's a problem with your disposal, it's an easy DIY fix. E-mail me or something and I'll give you details.
