Daddy starts his new job on Monday, pals!  He has to wear special clothes, and get this!  They're giving him $300 to buy them!!  Momma says it's all so overwhelmingly exciting!

AND!!  Guess what else!  Momma might be getting a promotion next school year!  She doesn't know too much about it yet, but it would be more money!  And from the little she does know about it, it sounds like her dream job, cause she'd get to work with every kid in the school!!  Keep your fingers crossed!

See, pals, prayers and good thoughts really DO work.  Momma and Daddy went from being nearly bankrupt to having all of these exciting opportunities happening.  Momma wants you all to know, that once Daddy gets his first real paycheck, she plans on paying it forward to all of those in need, since all you pals who helped us out...well, Momma is leaking while she types this, cause you all can't possibly know how you saved us when we needed it the most.  So after Momma treats herself to a manicure and pedicure (which would be the first thing she's bought JUST for herself in years...YEARS I tell you), she plans on giving to those in need as often as possible.  Cause she knows how it feels to be saved, and she wants to pass that on to others.

Oh, AFTER she buys me a few new toys.  She doesn't know about that part yet.  And I haven't had a new Nylabone in about 74989128748710 years....just saying, Momma....
