Day 7

Thank you so much for all your prayers everyone! We got across the border and it was a total miracle of God! They seemed hesitant to want to let me, Dana, across because I am an American coming across with no job and no proof of how I would support myself. Or course we know that God is our provision...but they wouldn't understand that, necessarily. I was praying and the Lord just confirmed in my heart that He had it taken care of. They made us go inside to talk to an immigration officer. I told the officer that we had tax money in the bank. He asked me for a way to prove it. I told him I had no paperwork of that sort but I could call the bank and have him listen to the amount we had. He said that would work. He didn't have a phone I could use so I tried to add money to my cell phone. But while I was trying to do that the phone died because it was out of "juice." He ended up saying "that's fine." I don't need it. He wanted to know about health insurance for the kids...which I said they did have in CA...but I wasn't sure if it could be used here in Canada...and he wanted to know about schooling for the kids which we told them they are homeschooled. He looked at our records from when we lived here before and said we had done everything "by the books" then so he was going to let us in. He said if we're here longer than 2 months then we need to get paperwork for that. God is sooooo good!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks again for your prayers!! God is definitely at work! We ended up not making it to our final destination last night because we were going through really crazy weather yesterday...most of the day. The rain was of the torrential sort last night and the wind was very strong...so we decided to stop again one more night. We have another 3 1/2 - 4 hours of driving today. Yeah! We're almost there! :)
