My oldest daughter left for bootcamp Monday, my husband was laid off yesterday and my second oldest daughter is moving out next weekend so I am scared and miss/will miss my girls.
Please pray that my husband finds a good job soon, for discernment about whether I should put my 2 year old in daycare and get a job too or just wait it out, and that my girls are/will be safe and happy with their new lives.
 
Hail Mary, full of grace.
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou amongst women,
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of our death.
Amen

Our Father, Who Art in Heaven
Hallowed be Thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come.
Thy Will be done
On Earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
And forgive us our trespasses
As we forgive those who trespass against us.
Lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil.
Amen

I’m so sorry to hear this news! 😦 you and your family are in my prayers.
 
A prayer to St Joseph to help find work:

Dear Joseph, You have had to change your plans many times to do God’s will. First you had to accept the angel’s word that Jesus was the son of God. Then you were forced to accept a stable as the first home for the son of God. You and Mary probably had a crib waiting for Jesus back home but you were forced to flee to Egypt a foreign country because your lives were threatened. Joseph, you are not the only one who had to make life or death decisions during this Christmas season. Please help the family of happy2bmom. Give the family the courage, strength, and good judgement to handle this stressful situation. The father of the family needs work. As the patron of workers, dear Joseph, please put in a good word to God that there is a devoted dad who wants to do his duty to his family and by doing that will be serving God Almighty.
 
:gopray: Thank you father for promising to provide our needs. We pray that DH will find the job you have prepared for him. We pray that you guide him and direct him. Lord, we pray for the girls continue to protect them and direct them. Strengthen them and prepare them for the rigors of boot camp and of life as an adult. Lord embrace this dear mother comfort her. Fill in the emptiness that is going to be in her heart when the girls go out on their own. Remind, her Father, that they are in your hands. Grant her direction with regards to going back to work or continuing to stay home with the little one. Lord, we leave this family into your hands.
 
Thank you all so much for your prayers.
Our situation is still the same but my attitude has changed–I feel so much better and am confident everything will work out (even though I miss my girls I know it’s time).
Thank you Thank you again and God Bless!
