So, the Lord most definitely loves us! We keep seeing his hand more and more in our lives. It’s crazy how much he has blessed us with and continues to bless us with, especially as the birth of our two little girls draws closer and closer.
On Sunday, the 20th, we woke up to this basket full of stuff outside our front door:
Inside of the basket was a hand-knit scarf and hat, the DVD The Ultimate Gift, fresh apples and oranges, a ceramic angel, a tube of tootsie rolls, chocolate gold coins, popcorn, a Christmas bell, three boxes of Jello-O, Ripe Berry body wash and body mist, and a little spiraled bound book of Christmas stories relating to most of the items in the basket. Here’s a picture of Josh reading from the book and wearing the new bow tie I got him for Christmas:
But, the huge blessing part comes in a folded piece of paper that came in the basket as well. The letter read:
Merry Christmas,We appreciate all you do and your wonderful example of Christmas spirit. We thought you could maybe use a little extra to spend on yourselves with all the expenses of the twins. Have a great week and a great Christmas.
