Unexpected Blessings

We've been the recipients of many blessings, big and small, over the past few months.   And I am here to tell you that the little acts of kindness from friends and family that have really helped to get us through some of the tougher days! 

Thank you, friends and family, for letting God's love shine through you -you've made this journey a happy one!


Part of a grandmother's job is to spoil her grandchildren...  And it has joyfully begun!  Yes, I had fun playing and dressing these American Girl Dolls!  ;)


I have to confess that I've been pony shopping on the sly for the girls.   Sam is thankful that a sweet friend snagged this pony for Flora Lin and Charlotte!  He's safe to ride and requires no clean up!


My Dad built some shelves to retro-fit this old wardrobe into a preschool closet.  A fantastic friend donated BOXES of preschool learning materials for us to use!  This little wardrobe is now FULL!  The Leaning A Farm Preschool is ready for its two cute little students!


I have a long-time friend who is great with sewing, making something from nothing and doesn't back down from a challenge - which makes her a perfect help for my sewing projects!  And she has a lovely assistant!


See?  Fantastic curtains!


Perfect pillows!


More awesome curtains upgraded by my friend!


 My Aunt Suzan sent a prayer shawl made by her church - it came at the perfect time!  We can't wait to get the girls home and literally wrap them up in prayers!


And I saved the best for last...  A sweet student made this portrait of my horse, Kahlo!  I loved it sooooo much that I knew it would be perfect hanging in the girls' room.  Thank you, little C!

So there you have it, a post full of blessings! :)
