BLESSING #34457702 :)
We just finished a conference at Loudonville Baptist Temple in Loudonville OH. While we were there....well let me back up a bit. ....before we left MI, we went to an ear nose throat specialist because Eve was having so much trouble with her ears. There was constant fluid buildup, she wasn't speaking very well still, and had failed a hearing test.
So...the ENT said that she needs tubes, and we scheduled surgery for April 6. Which would cost from $300 + hospital charges. AND even though it only takes 15 min., she needed to be put under (which terrified me).

So right before we left, we were packing and getting ready, and my parents mentioned to us that possibly a chiropractor could help!
And so, while we were driving down to OH, I wrote our home chiropractor (which we had been seeing until we lost our insurance in Jan), and he said to find a local chiro. Then after church that night, I asked Chris (the pastor's wife) if she recommended anyone. She said she knew the PERFECT person and would set it all up!!

The next day, she and Dr. Tontoh Simpson worked out a time (on his day off) to adjust Eve. I took the girls to the appt (Nic was at a meeting in the afternoon), and Dr. Simpson not only adjusted Eve, but he then went on to test her for allergies.

Although this might not sound like a blessing, the chance of knowing how to fix the issue is peace to my soul. He told us the Evangeline has allergies to dairy and gluten. (which, honestly, yeah I freaked out at first-"oh my word! That's everything!!")
BLESSING #34457706 :)
The entire visit-from start to finish-was completely free! And I'm sure he charges quite a bit-it is a very nice facility! And he and his wife Heather were incredibly encouraging! He told us how to adjust her diet and what to watch for, etc. Then I got a bunch more information from other friends as well! AND Evangeline has been talking up a storm-much more clearly than before!!!
So from the background, even though I cannot always see or understand the ways that GOD works, He has-yet once again-proven Himself totally and completely FAITHFUL!!!!
Now here are some "excerpts" from our lives......:)
*I was (quite awhile back) talking to a dear, sweet, older lady-who was just letting us know how much they appreciated us visiting....yet all the while-accidentally spitting in my coffee cup:)
*Everytime Joc sees any sort of blue or white flag, she says-"Look mom-Salv'door flag!":)
*We were getting the girls ready for church-washing them, yet we couldn't seem to find a plug for the tub. So Jocelyn pipes up, "I can be a big helper-I'll be the plug!"
*We were rushing to be on time (bit early) for a meeting...surprise surprise!:)...and while we were driving around a corner, beside a huge cliff and river, I look outside to see my purse-flying on the side mirror!!:) hahaha! So the next time we are getting ready to leave, Jocelyn (ever so sweetly;) ) reminds me, "Now mom don't put your purse on the mirror".
*We were eating pizza at a church (before we had found out that Eve was allergic to gluten), and when she saw the boxes, she hollered, "pizzaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh!"
*Listening to songs from bible verses, Joc asked, "Why it's quench not the spirit?"
*Eve was making "Sssssssssssss" noises from the back, and Jocelyn hollers "but mom! I don't like snakes!":)
*Then the last...it's very hilly here in OH, and Jocelyn informed Nic today that the "hills hurt the body"
:)
Have a wonderful day!
