Sextuplets

I have been driving around for the past few days picking up job applications and checking out childcare facilities. During this process, I have come to realize that there is not a facility out there that is good enough for MY baby. This process has also reinforced how messed up our society has become!

If a woman has sextuplets, she is all over the news. The community rallies around her, showering her with gifts and taking shifts to live with her and help with the babies. I think there's even a TV show on TLC about a family with sextuplets.

However, every childcare center I have visited has a 6 to 1 ratio in their infant room. Our society has decided it is okay to pay a woman $7/hr to care for 6 babies all day. Calculate that out and each child gets a minimum of 1.25 hours of individual care daily (not taking into account that the more fussy babies will get more attention). This is definitely not how God intended for us to raise our children.

Please pray for Tandon and I as we crunch numbers and try to figure out what's best for our family. Pray that God would open the door for a better paying job for Tandon or that He would provide a sweet grandmother who is willing to care for Kellen while I work. (By the way, Mom you are welcome to move back in with us, like you did while I was on bed rest. HEE HEE)

I know that God is faithful!!
