A Special Gift from A Priceless Teen...


We have a very special student from church, who let us know this week that she has a gift for our girls. The Lord is moving her family on to a new home, new job and new church family so, she had something special to pass on to our girls and she called this afternoon to see if they could drop it off. I should have had the camera ready to capture my daughters' eyes when they brought this house through the door! We have occasionally stood wide eyed in the isles at hobby stores admiring doll houses such as this, so to have one seems like a lovely dream! The girls have been studying all the neat furniture they brought with the house and finding new ways to rearrange it in the house. Even Noah is having fun pretending with Bell right now. It is such a beautiful gift- But in all honesty, I would gladly trade in the house to keep them here. It is so hard to see them go even though I know the Lord has plans for good in their lives! The house will be a constant reminder of the blessing they all have been in our lives. It will also serve as a reminder to pray for them as they make a new start and look for a new church family.
