It's not Disney World, the beach, or even fancy resturant, but....it is a very unique, magical, and costly moment at our house today. We are having new septic lines put in this morning. I decided to celebrate. It's not everyday that a little boy gets to see and hear a backhoe in his backyard. The boys are enamored by the sounds of this machine. And I have to say it IS very interesting.
I am strangely at peace with the fact that this fascinating machine will lead to an almost empty bank account. On top of the basement problem last month, our house has sucked us dry monetarily. We have had nearly $4000 of unexpected house costs lately.
Sure, I would rather watch my kids hugging a Disney character or splashing on the beach, but God had other plans. Maybe our plumber needed the money, and this is God's way of taking care of him.
wink wink
Instead, we'll just be hanging around the house enjoying our potties, sinks, washing machines, and showers in a new way.
Thank you God for providing the money and our working plumbing!!!
And thank you, God, for the peace and laughter today that only could come from You!
We love you guys! Have a great rest of your week. McFaden's
