So let me tell you the real reason dad and Pam came to visit this past weekend. At church, my friend Kim started a manners class for 2
nd-5
th grade girls. It was wonderful for the girls. Before she started it, she talked to me about wanting to end the class with a father/daughter dinner. Of course, my first thought went to my girls...what would they do? What would they think? Are they going to feel bad?
I panic easily...but then I get myself together. They will be
ok. The Lord has us in our specific situation at this specific time for a reason. He WILL take care of us in every way. So....I called my dad and asked if he would like to come and take the girls. Then I contacted my uncle (my dad's brother) Scott and asked if he would take the girls. They were happy to.
The girls LOVED it!!! They had so much fun with their grandpa and uncle. Thank you Lord for these men...thank you that they step in when needed. The Lord has given us so many great friends. There are many men in our church, or other uncles we could have called if dad and Scott couldn't have come. Thank you
Lord for taking care of us and caring about the details in our lives!
Some high school girls came in and did the girls' hair and nails before the dinner....they had so much fun!!!

Okay, so I'm exhausted and suppose to be typing a resignation letter for work tomorrow- but I see there are all these posts to catch up on! Started with the oldest and read up - I love these about my uncles. A few tears even! Totally worth staying up a bit longer. Thanks for sharing. Sarah
