A blessing

As you might remember I had some work done to my teeth the beginning of June, a root canal to be exact to my front tooth and the tooth was build up as well. A few days ago the whole thing broke off believe it or not. I looked like a homeless person. Yvonne suggested I take a tin can to collect some change. They say you can make a lot in one day, hahaha! I can laugh about that now but at the time we were quite upset, because we had no idea how much this would set us back.

But the dentist had several good suggestions and she also assured me that I would not have to pay for her time since it had cost me so much in June. We decided on having the lab attach a tooth to my partial which would cost $65.00. I could not believe she would not charge for all the preparations for the lab, impressions and such. I am very happy the way it looks. What a sweetheart she is. Yes there still are some nice people in this world.

We are also getting ready for Yvonne, Jason and the girls who'll be arriving next Wednesday.
I have been decorating the house. Jason says that "Christmas threw up in Oma's house!"
Anneka was worried I had put up the Christmas tree. I promised her, yes I would put it up with the lights only and for the rest I am going to need her help. That I am looking forward to it is an understatement.

Whatever presents I bought so far have been wrapped up, which is great.

I am still so amazed at how God answered all of our prayers. I had been praying so hard since you first told me.

I know that God hears our prayers and he answers them. The thing is He doesn't always answer the way that we may want him to answer BUT in this case, HE answered far beyond all our expectations. He is truly marvelous! I am so happy for you! God must love you lots!!!! :)
