My friend Jane gave me this cool apron. And if you know Jane (and me) then you're probably rolling laughing at this too. You'll have to excuse the no makeup/up too late/not quite awake look I'm sportin'. :) In other Christmas miracle related news, remember this from a while ago? Note that the date changed a bit???>>>>
AES stands for American Education Services AKA: "You owe us a lot of money". They are the lender for my student loans and a while back I posted about a federal loan forgiveness grant I was applying for. Well, actually, I applied for it a while back but didn't qualify because I didn't have enough experience. Then my friend Maegan insisted that I apply again (even though I told her over and over and over and over and over that I wouldn't qualify). On Dec 26th, I opened the letter and started skimming for 'denied' 'we're sorry' or 'don't qualify'.
I couldn't find those words and the whole letter was like, two sentences long, so I started from the beginning reeeeaaalll slow...then I came to the last line and started totally screaming:

I mean, I prayed and prayed and then He sent me this cool letter. He truly does answer prayer, huh!!!!???? WHOOOOO HOOOOOO!!!!!
