Ah Willow, I'm sorry you had such a tough time through Christmas. Sounds like you all did the smart thing. Some people when they lose their jobs, keep everything and live the same. That approach doesn't help. I will keep you in my prayers that you both find something you truly love to do...that way it won't seem like a job.

That is so great your mother is opening up to the children. She won't have any regrets and the kids will have great memories to hold on to.

We bought these 'radiator' type heaters at Wal Mart. They are electric, but we don't notice any increase in the electric bill. They are thermostatically controlled. We bought one on sale for $29, the other not on sale was $34. They really do great at heating up the rooms. You might want to check them out.

Glad you came and let us know what you've been up to. Praying good things come your way.
