How many times have we said this?
Well, K has been needing some clothes BADLY. I mean, her onesies can't snap anymore, hear what I'm sayin'??? So on to ebay I go where I find the most incredible lot of baby clothes I've ever seen. To DIE for cute. All baby Gap, Children's place clothes. Now, I have never, ever been a label buyer, but these clothes made me realize why their clothes were perceived as so much better...because they are. Lol So of course I get J bidding on them. The lot (about 20 different outfits) is up to over 200.00. Wow. I start thinking with 100.00 I can go to Wal Mart and get more than what I need. But Jeff bids for me anyway as he KNOWS this has become as big a want as need. If you knew J, you would know what a gift to me this was because he is the epitome of being frugal. Goes to 250, 300, finally at our being outbid at 322.00 even I cannot stand it anymore and put a stop to it. Ridiculous says I!
A few days later, Fearless shows up with like 20 dresses for K. Some for play, some for church. I could practically get through winter with them.
And then yesterday another friend who came for lunch brought three HUGE tubs of play clothes in the exact right size. Even up to age 2 if I wanted. Onesies, outfits, dresses, leggings, sweaters, pants, on and on and on and on. I took a huge lot from the tubs and they are still full to be returned....
And would you guess what? They are mostly all Baby Gap and Children's place. (Just so soft and stretchy!) A bigger lot, (by far) all for free. Now, to me this says, God can do all things if you give him a chance and are obedient to what he says about money. He blessed me BIGGER than the ebay lot...He just put it together a different way. I love how He works!
Thanks to those who gave or lent me clothes and thanks be to God who can clothe the lilies of the field AND my darling Kate!

That's awesome! I remember getting a pair of little patent leather boots for Hannah when she was Kate's age. They were a want and not a need so I didn't buy them but then someone gave me a bag of clothes with those little boots just Hannah's size. I was so blessed!
