Since leaving my full time job its been very tough for us financially. There are many days when I have no idea how the bills will be paid. I never had a lot of faith before. I can say that over these past few months my faith is growing in ways I never expected. During the month of December some things happened and I had no idea how we were going to afford Christmas gifts. I prayed and then went to the mail. Not sure if it was that day, or a few days later. At any rate, I found a check for $300 that we had not been expecting. Christmas...Done. When I first left my job i wasn't expecting to be paid for the month of vacation time I'd accumulated. I picked up my final paycheck....vacation...paid for all 24 days. I cashed out a profit sharing plan that I had while working. Several months later, boom...received a notice of yet another profit sharing plan that could be cashed.
Most recently, my husband and I were both offered positions at a small private school in our area. We don't make a ton, but the money comes at a time during the month when we would otherwise be very short. The job is 3 days a week, Sydney goes to pre-k there, and we are able to take Gabriella so childcare isn't an issue. So my view today is this...a classroom in a tiny little school that symbolizes one of many blessings on our family.
