I am very thankful for a God who is living and active in my life. Miss Katie-bug has a mouthful of cavities and needs seven cavities and two crowns. Because of her heart condition, the cardiologist said that she needed to come to the U of M dentist school so that the work could be done in one fell swoop under anesthesia. She cannot have anesthesia in a dentist office because it's too risky. So...to the hospital she goes. She is having pain in her teeth, so I don't want to put off the dental work.
We received a notice in the mail that our dentist appointment was scheduled for July 23. Well, that was a problem. We will be moving around mid-July. I called them and explained our
I hung up and prayed that God would get us in sooner. I knew that I would only occasionally think of calling the dentist, so if God didn't step in, we would not get an earlier appointment.
A few hours later, the phone rang. It was the dental office. They had just gotten a cancellation for Thursday. Could we come?! Woohoo!! So not only did they have an earlier date, but THEY CALLED ME!
Thank you, God, for caring about even the smallest details of our lives.

Update on Ryan's decision re: the Army, he is proceeding in that direction and needs to go through some testing. He seems confident that he will end up enlisting. Our girls are just finding out and they are upset. Chloe, especially, has always been Ryan's little buddy. She is already very worried and asked me tonight,
"Mom is Ryan going to be in the Army?"
I said I wasn't sure and then she said fearfully, 'Will he get hurt?"
Watching them deal with it is worse than dealing with it myself. I pray that God will give us wisdom and enable us to reassure and comfort them.
Ryan and Katie-bug
