I know I have said it before, but I don't think you can really hear
thank you enough. I am so very thankful for our babysitters (and
friends!) Josh and Angel. They came into our lives when we really needed
them. Angel had sent me a text offering to watch the kids if we needed
help. I don't think I could have replied faster. It was at a time we
were really struggling with child care. Since then they have become one
of our most regular sitters. Not only that, they have allowed us to come
along side them and watch their kids. Makes me feel so much better to
have it be mutually beneficial. Don't tell them I told you, but I also
really like having their younger

kids (21 months and 6.5 months) once in
awhile. Makes me feel a bit less like having another of my own! I am
also thankful for the friendship that is forming between us. Angel and
Josh even invited us to be a part of their wedding which was amazing. I
have another story that tells you just how amazing Angel is. Hopefully
she doesn't get mad at me putting this out there, but I'm gonna risk it.
Awhile back my kindle was stolen. Natalie had been playing with it in
the waiting room of my office, when she left to go to the restroom
someone swiped it. I was so frustrated. I couldn't be mad at Natalie,
but it was definitely an expensive lesson for her to learn. I resigned
myself to being kindle-less for awhile since it wasn't in the budget to
replace it. But one night when she came to pick up her kiddos, she
handed me a bag and told me not to open it until she was gone. Inside
was a kindle that she found me on craigslist. It was such an unexpected
blessing that I nearly cried. The note that accompanied it will be just
for me, but know that her heart is PURE GOLD. I can't think of a time in
my life that was more divinely planned. He knew that we needed Josh and
Angel and put them in our lives just when we would accept the help they
were offering. I am endlessly thankful for their help with our kids and
also for the friendship we have formed.
I can't believe you posted this on the day I show up an hour late to pick up the kids, like we tell you it goes both ways the blessings and help have been returned especially when we need them the most you have got us out of tight spots with no babysitter several times on very short notice!
