Could you please send up a quick prayer for us? I had $50 set aside for groceries this week, but Colin had to go to the doctor this AM and has another nasty sinus infection. Copay + prescriptions was $48.

I should be receiving a small check on Friday, so we'll make do until then. We have plenty of pasta and peanut butter to get us through the week.

We also have to make a decision about DH moving to Boston this week. We don't see any other option at the moment, but I am under a great deal of stress thinking of what it will mean for me, here, alone, trying to continue working and coping with child care plus everything else. And still not knowing if DH will earn enough because it's still 100% commission based. (which is why I can't stop working)

I'm really struggling.

I just need prayers to get through the next few months with grace and kindness to my family.   Thank you.

That is so hard when you think the money is for one thing, another thing always shows up. Never stop trusting in God though, He will provide always. Prayers for your family's decision with the move.
