things just got real....financially. jane and i knew this day would come. emilie, our oldest needs braces. small mouth, big teeth - not good. as most know, they do it in two phases now. don't want to bore you with the details involved with the procedure. we went to her consult today. everything was fine and dandy until we were hit with the estimated cost. OMG. MON DIEU. i looked at jane and uttered very quietly "how are we going to pay for this?" we will probably find a way to pay for emilie but i have two other little mouths that probably need railroad tracks inserted. overwhelmed. time for daddy to get a second job at the dock. as most of you know, this is on top of all three kids having vision issues and requiring glasses. kiddie glasses ain't cheap. sigh.
when i got home i wanted to go crawl in my bed and sleep for 30 years. but was gently reminded of Matthew 6:26 - "Look at the birds of the air: they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?" gosh darn it, the Kim family is much more valuable than a bunch of ding dong birdies! we really are! and God will provide for us in this situation and future hurdles (don't even get me started about college funds). tonight i rest easy with this FACT that God loves this family very much and will feed us well.
