We Begin Again

It is very funny how things occur.


I have met with a delightful family in just these last few days and will begin watching their children in a little over a week's time. However, this was not the first hearing I recieved of this couple who were seeking child-care. A friend of mine mentioned to me, just after Thanksgiving, that she heard of a family who just moved back to the area from London, UK, that was looking for a nanny. At the time I wasn't sure that I wanted to attach my heart to another family and nearly set the idea completely aside.

As I posted last time, I just decided to re-enter child-care when I was told of this family once again from a totally different source. God has a perfect timeline and everything happening in it (which is everything) is done perfectly. He knew that my heart required a healing and provided for it just as He is providing now.

(Not to say that the infinite God responded to my decision but rather that His guidance is the reason for it.)

Though there is still growing and mending to be done, God has once again proven that He is over all that and more.

Blessings,

A Funny Thing Happened On the Way To The Nanny Agency

On Friday of last week I made the decision to re-enter the child-care world. It was as if a message went out on the wind in many different directions. I called that day to speak to "The Nanny Connection" about an ad that they had placed in the paper and since that time I have not gone a day without an offer of employment.

My last post spoke of being a brave beginner and I have tried to be such in this time. I have, however, failed in the outward bravery department. I have had two interviews in the last two days and both have held questions that induced tears. The questions were about the last family I worked with. Perhaps I am seeing this step as the final one that says "I'm not going to work with them anymore."
