I just learned that my daughter will get the braces on her teeth for sure. They plan to do it on her teeth next week and it costs us a little over 5 thousands. We don't have the kind of money. Plus, my health issues (going to many different doctors and tests) and probably will have a surgery soon. That adds to the expenses we will have to pay. We will find a way to deal with this with the Lord's help, but I am concerned about my daughter's father. He is not much active in my girls' lives and he does not like to pay the expenses other than child support. I have been paying all the expenses for my girls all their lives and I did not complain much about it. Because of his instability and unsteady with his jobs. He is more of a jobhopping. But, since he have been working for military (before he was reserved, but now became active), he makes a lot of money and he plans to move to one city where they are sending him to work and was told that he plans to stay there for good til' his retirement. So, I was hoping I could talk him into paying half the expenses for my daughter's braces because it is medical reason, not vanity reason. So, please pray for us and pray for Amber's father to see that I need his help with this expense. And, that it is his responsiblity to pay some since Amber is his daughter. My husband have been very good at meeting my girls' needs and I don't want to burden him any more than necessary to help out with the financial. He have done a lot for my girls. So, that is why I am hoping to be able to talk to the girls' father and get him to help me with the expenses. So, thank you so much for your support and prayers!!
