A few weeks back I posted my secret of getting a job. One of the reason for getting a job was to have some extra money to do things with my family. Here's the awesome part where God stepped in....
My husband and I said if we could just have an extra $100 a week it would help. I filled out the application on a Friday. That same Friday Matthew received his first paycheck with the new company... The paycheck was exactly $100 more!!!!! When he switched to the new company he had to fill out all the tax withholding forms... turns out he hadn't changed the dependant part since we got married!!!!! Immediately I thought "wow God, thanks!" But instead of saying... okay God you provided the $100 I don't need to work... I said... wow now we can have $200 extra dollars a week!!!!!! GREED.
The Wednesday after I turned in the application I called them. They said to call back in an hour, I did.... only to be told to call back the next day. I called back the next day and was told they'd call me back in a couple of weeks. All I was asking each time I called was if they'd received my application that I filled out online!!! So I let a week pass and then I called back... this time I was told they'd call me back in an hour... that was last Friday. Ya think God's trying to tell me "Hey Nicole! I provided you're extra $100 you needed so you don't have to leave you're family at night!!!!" Sometimes I think we just need a good ole smack over the head before we realize what God's trying to tell us.

hahahahaha!! Been there, done that. God has just about beat me black and blue sometimes to get the point over.
It's funny how He makes things so easy and we make things so difficult. I'm glad you finally heard Him and decided to stay home with your GORGEOUS babies. They grow up so fast. Love ya! Vickie
Sometimes it's hard to get thru to our brains :) Glad you can stay home with your kids. As Vickie says they grow up TOO fast!
