Getting Taller...Growing like the Trees.
From one little bed in the grassy field, to one big girl bed in the lush forest. :)Everything is so timely that i could NEVER believe in 'coincidence', only providence. honestly. God has provided for all of our needs, and he continues to do so. Friends of ours are getting rid of a lot of their 'clutter' as kids grow up and move out, and we were blessed to receive a lovely bed for Julia and a dresser for our new baby from them(plus the bonus of having them over for supper and a visit). :)
So here is little miss J enjoying her new bed. IT was hilarious...She and Holly(the daughter of our friends) played in her room on the new bed for a couple hours. (later on Julia told me they were pretending that one of them was God, and the other was/were the little children coming to him--so they were acting out the bible story about the little children coming to JEsus. i thought that was pretty funny.ahah)
anyway. that's the new bed.
i'm excited.
...especially since i bought three sheets and three pillow covers for under 10$ to start out our twin-bed-size linen collection. :) Okay so everyone but me probably already knew this but: Can you believe that most sheet sets are crazy-ridiculous prices, like 25$ and more just for ONE SET??? yikes. i can't afford to linen-ize our home with prices like that! Even at the 'less expensive' family stores....yikes. i am glad for stores that recycle items so we don't ahve to pay the CRAZY prices. :) just a little rant.
loves.

More room to wriggle! That's great! I agree that prices for new things are most times alot too much. It is fun to get a new sheet set for a gift/present, but too have to buy all new things as your children grow really does take alot of cash. So happy that you were able to find what you need and sustain the planet too!
I had a great saturday too! It was hard to be at school and not at home this week. I think the tough part was that all the at home things i used to take care of in the day were still there when i got home. Boo. i thought they might go away.
I liked having time with corrina in the afternoon and then doing chores while she slept. It felt 'normal', that which was normal for a year at least.
Hope you start your week off great! I start my week off with a good course!
Adios
ps i made turkey/chick soup and it was yummy. It was random, but i did it!
