Sunday morning we get a knock on the door and our neighbour informs us that there was a string of car break ins overnight and ours too got broke into. Fortunately we didn't have much of value in the car except Jeremy's wallet. Although the little thieves riffled through it nothing was taken, not his ID or credit card, so that was a silver lining. Our CD's were taken, some spare change and possibly our GPS as we can't locate that. We called the police and they said that right now what the thieves are looking for is specific to the GPS systems, so that explains why they didn't take J's ID. Regardless no point claiming it to insurance as nothing was damaged and our deductible is higher then the stolen goods.
Later in the day I also receive a call from my Childcare provider. She has been offered a job at the YMCA as a Life Coach...whatever that is....but anyways she is giving me her 2 weeks notice. Her new job starts on August 24th...this is not 2 weeks away..only 1 week..so now I am left without a sitter for my kids and have a week to find new arrangements. Not good.
However despite all this bad news, a little cherry on top came into the world last night August 16th, his name is Patrick and he is the cutest little thing. My sister Casidee delivered him, weighing in just over 7 pounds, he is so tiny and sweet and perfect in every way. I got to hold him and kiss is little hands and perfect toes. Although he has been born into a less then perfect situation I sure hope Casidee makes the best of it and turns her life around.
I really needed the baby therapy last night, babies always make me feel so good. There is just something about their vulnerable little cries, there hazy little gaze up at you and that SMELL that just melts my heart. Such a blessing of creation!
