A blessing happened in the last few days that I thought I'd share. We've known for a long time that when our referral came, we would be sending a check for another payment toward adoption fees. Well, Mark has been working very hard trying to make extra money for these adoption expenses and because his salary at work was cut by 10% this year. Well, it just so happened that two checks reached our mailbox this week. One was a property tax refund for overpayment due to the dive in the real estate values in San Diego. Another was an extra work check for Mark that arrives about every 3 months. The total of our adoption payment was 5,485 and the 2 checks totaled 5,263. Is God providing? I think so.
