A little help

Melissa just told me about the Angel Food Ministries. In a nutshell, its a church based organization that was started to help people in need. They now help anyone regardless of your situation. For $30 you can get enough food to feed a family of four for a week. Although, with the amount of food you get, I bet it will last more than a week. The same amount of food could be purchased for approximately $65 at the grocery store. They have a different menu every month and you can order just the main food package or they have specialty packages with fruits and veggies, steaks and other fun stuff. You do have to pick up the food. They have several churches in the area that participate. Jon and I are looking into it especially after being surprised with a bath tub replacement, more hospital bills for Sam, a $125 prescription for Sam, license plate renuals and Jons pay schedule changing which will result in a $150 decrease in pay per month. We were just commenting last night that its so hard to get ahead these days. God must have been listening. This sounds like a small step in the right direction for everyones financial crisis!

In family news, we are all sick...again! Ben got a cold which he spread to me. Jon started to get sick, but apparently the medicine he took did the job because he seems to be doing a lot better. Sam had a fever last night and this morning. He's been a little cranky, but that seems to be it. Since pregnant women are everywhere, I avoided Bible study last night and play group this morning. Instead, we've been running in circles around the house trying to get out some energy and listening to crazy contractors give outrageous estimates on our bathtub. Fun times!

The newest Calaway is scheduled to enter the world tomorrow morning. We are all praying for a smooth delivery and a healthy baby girl. We can't wait to meet her!
