Somebody (and you know who you are) made my day today! Who am I kidding, you made my week…month. WOW! I got the greatest package in the mail. I was sent a baby gift…a box from Hannah Anderson with 2 pairs of wiggle pants, a short sleeve onesie snap tee, a long sleeve onesie Jeeper Creeper, a cable cardigan, and a receiving blanket. They are all organic cotton, coordinate each other, and are so soft, well made, and with the CUTEST print of little teddy bears. I can not believe it. I totally bawled when I opened it. I am so overwhelmed and happy! I called mom to tell her and she started crying too. lol. She also sent a very generous gift certificate so I can get some more pieces…I get to pick some things out myself! I think I am going to save it a bit to stretch out the joy. I can not describe how full my heart is. My baby will have some new things to wear.
The thing that made me the happiest was the sweater. Last night as I was trying to go to sleep I decided I had to knit something for the baby so she could have *something* pretty to wear home and I couldn’t afford to buy anything and everything for the baby was hand-me down. (I am very happy with hand-me-downs, don’t get me wrong, but I really wanted her to have something that was meant for her alone) I spent much of the day trying to psych myself up for knitting something even though I knew it was going to make my hands hurt like crazy. That sweater is the absolute duplicate of what I wanted to knit. It could not have been closer. It is PERFECT. I cried in relief and joy that I have something really special to bring her home in. What an incredible gift.
Enjoy the cuteness with me!

That really is fabulous! Even a blanket! Wow!
That is so awsome!!!!
They’re so cute! What a wonderful gift! gI know what you mean, I’m the worlds biggest fan of handme-downs, but it’s harder with Rhi being the only girl and last in line, and Liam has had very little of “his own” being the third boy.
oh, how wonderful, enjoy!!!
