Why so expensive...

As I stare at the stack of bills we keep receiving, I make my eyes go to my sweet, sleeping baby to remind myself that it's worth it! Why having a baby, even with insurance, is so expensive...we'll never know! I am pretty darn positive that it doesn't cost as much as they choose to charge. Not only do I have to recover from him being born, I have to now recover from the shock that happens when I see his price tag. Could they not have had a spring sale or a stimulus package? Anyway, I knew going into this that it would be expensive...clearly that is not the point of this blog posting.

The point is to ask everyone to be praying in the next few weeks as they decide whether or not to help us financially. Our hospital has a program called "Bridge Assistance," that we've applied for. This program helped us when Sophie was born, and we are so thankful that there is something available. Please be praying that they will help us again!!

I know that there may be a person in charge of our paperwork, but really it is the God of the universe who created Aaron, that is in charge. We know whatever the outcome is, that God had it all planned out and He will provide. Our prayer is that our paperwork will be processed quickly and the person looking at it will find favor with us. We are praying that they will see fit to recommend a large percentage of coverage and that it will be approved.

Glory to God who is able to do far greater than we can even ask or imagine...Aaron is His baby and we are so grateful!

Praise God for the Bridge Assistance program. Kyle and I could not have survived without them stepping in to help. We had hundreds of thousands of dollars after insurance with Bronson's stay. We will be praying for you guys. One of the women that works there is a STRONG christian that was so lovely to work with.
