DAY 89 --- Dentist Report, at least half of it.

Well, I went to the dentist and shocker.  I was told I need three crowns.  I was "blessed" with rotten teeth in my sojourn in this mortality.  So now I have to get three crowns and two cavities fixed before we go.  I guess that is another miracle.  Would my teeth are just falling apart be a miracle?  This will probably put off our mission for a few months.  Originally we were going to say we would be ready to go after our number 19 and number 20 grandchild is born. But now, unless there is another major financial miracle, we shall just not quit our jobs until we have paid off my dentist after he does what he says needs to be done, and whatever Bonnie finds out Wednesday, and whatever the other two find out this Saturday.

I do not feel totally devastated.  I know there are always reasons things happen.  "All things have been done in the wisdom of him who knoweth all things."  There are reasons why I must have three crowns.  Maybe to make me feel like royalty?  Or perhaps the location that Father wants us to serve won't be opening up until after we have paid all that off.  Who knows, but we tackle whatever challenge, or whatever obstacle is presented to us and do so as rapidly as we can, THEN go. 

We are still excited and anxious to go.  We have heard stories from others who have gone.  We hear stories, testimonials, and this dream/goal of 89 days is coming and I am very excited as Bonnie is. 

I am sure that we have not seen all the miracles that await us either.  Onward and upward.  We have not been given any insurmountable obstacle yet, and so we are still preparing to go and realize this dream.  Don't know exactly when, have to wait until we see what the other doctors say.  But we are going.  Not sure when or where, but we are going.
