God's Timing

Hey, all, I'll make this brief. I'm stressing, overwhelmed, and exhausted. The girl we had been talking to about keeping Hayden has just disappeared. They moved to the Coast last Friday and we haven't heard a word. I don't know if they just don't have internet yet or what, but now school starts next Wednesday and we need childcare. David assures me God has it in His timing, but really? I mean, He does, but why are we to this point and things are back where we were months ago? I have to be at work by 6:45, and getting a baby up, fed, dressed, and ready to go by that time is not going to happen easily. Which is why this chick coming to our house was ideal. Now she's not returning any of our messages. So I don't know what to do. Mom can't lift him and it would be so much better to have someone come to our home. I just want to cry. David doesn't understand my reaction, but it all has me in such a tizzy. I don't want to leave Hayden in the first place, but now not to know who he will be with?

I will say a special prayer that y'all find the answers you need regarding childcare for Hayden ASAP!!! Are there other teachers you work with that have small children? They might have some ideas about who to call on if the situation you were hoping for doesn't pan out... Just a thought... Best Wishes and keep us posted!

Every teacher who has someone keeping their kids has given us names and numbers. All of those contacts were already full for this fall. I'm so overwhelmed.
