Prayer really does work...

After 2 weeks, I have finally stopped crying every minute because I was constantly thinking about leaving Savannah and going back to work. I couldn't stand the thought of going back to work, full time, and not seeing all of the "firsts" in her life. I finally decided to start praying that God would take this situation and create a way for me to work part time and be able to stay home with Savannah. I am a "take-control" type person, so it was hard for me to just let go and let God handle the situation. Finally, after 2 weeks of struggling with the situation, I really did just let go and stop trying to solve the problem. On Monday, October 20, 2008, God took my prayer request and answered it far beyond my wildest dreams! Without going into a ton of details, God used my job (and my amazing boss) to answer my prayers, to allow me to get to stay home with my baby. My work is going through some major restructuring which, in turn, gave me the ability and the funds to work part time. My amazing boss, which understood without me telling him, knew that in my heart, I needed to be a stay at home mom. This will mean a complete adjustment to mine and Jeremy's current lifestyle, but it is completely worth it to be able to stay at home and take care of my baby. Prayer really does work....!
