Hello everyone, This is just so hard to do. I really find it hard to ask for help,and I guess the reason I am really doing it is because I would just do anything for my kids as I am sure most parents would. We need help in the worst way. I feel like I am so paralyzed with worry everytime Monday rolls around,the thing is you know on the week ends the utilities will not be cut off, but during the week is a different,the worry starts back up that maybe we wont have electric or gas or water,and I could deal with that but my kids,they shouldn't have to deal with that sort of thing, nothing has gone off yet but I am just so worried I wont have the money for those bills that are actually due now. And then on top of that we have the holidays coming up. I do love the holidays because normally I do the giving, and I love that,but I am so scared to see my little girls faces on Christmas if something doesn't change and that would break my heart. So I am making a promise to myself, if somehow we get through this rough patch I will make sure that someone else's child next year,or as soon as I get back on my feet I will pay it forward,regardless if someone can help us. My husband lost his job and has been looking all over,he has even been waiting tables at a cafe but it just isn't making us enough money. If someone could find it in there heart just to help us a little it would be such a relief. I am just so worried we will get evicted if we don't come up with rent and the bills and Christmas. On top of all that my husband lost his mother his father his brother and he also had double bypass all with in the last year and a half. It has just been overwhelming for a while. I could write a soap opera. But I keep a smile on my face and just keep telling my family,everything will be ok. Anyway,I just wanted to give a little background information so y'all could understand a little about our life. And I will end there except to say that I really do hope that y'all have a great holiday season and a really good time with your family because no matter what, I will stay positive and keep a smile on my face because my smile might make someone else's day. Thank-you for letting me get things off my chest. Emma

Mommy of 3 still looking for Christmas help for 2boys n 1girl. Does anyone know of any angecies or groups in the St Louis Mo area willing to adopt a family this Christmas?
Dear Seroth_chan;
What a special soul you have. When the heavens open their gates to replenish it's children, YOU'LL be the one they'll be looking for, to give you that special gift you so deserve. At 17 yrs. old I was working as well and was married already a year. You know the story of the grass is greener on the other side? At 16 I thought I knew what was best, HA! I wished I had the person or persons that are raising you in my life then. I stayed married for 25 years, and it ended when he tried to kill me on one of his many drunken stoppers, but you don't need to hear all of this. I do not live near you at all, but if I did I'd welcome you in our life's, what a role model you'd be . You are offering to help the needy, what a statement that makes about you. You've already given one of the most precious, looked for gifts during every Holiday season, a gift from the heart, and that's what's real! If I could have just one Christmas gift, it would be, that the powers that be, send you any and all that your sweet heart desire's this Holiday season and through out your entire life. You truly are sent to this troubled world for a reason. You GLOW HOPE :)
Merry Christmas to you and all of yours, and thank you for that ray of light, that the whole world sees shining and beaming threw your very being.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS

I've never had to search for help before, I've always taking care of my family. I'm a mother of 3 and 8 months pregnant. Been with my husband for 8 years married 4. Guess times getting hard he felt as if he wasn't providing enough I'm not sure but he just up and left.Unfortunately I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes and I'm a high risk pregnancy. Had a great job but because my job requires me being on my feet 12 hours a day I was admitted into the hospital due to contractions. I've been put on strick bed rest. And I'm unable to return to work till after delivery due to the risk of my unborn baby and insurance risk of the company. I have no car so I walk my kids to school, me to doctor's appts, grocery store things are very difficult right now. I have a 11yr old daughter 4 & 5yr old sons Christmas is around the corner and they r excellent kids they deserve a Christmas. Also I have my baby coming and nothing for him. And its out of my hands because I can't go back to work till After he's born. I'm hoping there is anyone that may be financially able to offer any assistance and help towards bills, Christmas, and baby needs. I'm gracious for anything. God bless. And this is very difficult when I've always been able to take care of my family myself.
lol I forgot to include my email address XDD here it is:

I would also be willing to accept families from outside Tulsa.....I just think Oklahoma would be easier.....but I'm thinking about getting some of my classes to adopt families, so I might be able to adopt more than one...
