We were so blessed today! With our adoption fees, we don't have much extra money to spend on baby items, but we were really wanting to get our nursery set up so we could inlude pictures of it in our family profile (and just because it is so exciting to have our baby's room set up!) A family in our church gave us a crib today. (thanks Anne and Stetson!) How cool is that!? I love when I get to see the church working as the hands and feet of Christ. We were praying that God would provide what we needed to get a crib. At the same time, some amazing people who are listening to the voice of the Holy Spirit got to be used to answer our prayer. On top of that, our church nursery was getting rid of a glider and a pack n' play and said we could have them. So in one day, God blessed us with three of the most expensive baby items we would need. The glider needs a little work and TLC, but God also blessed me with a husband who can fix anything. So, today I'm just basking in the goodness and provision of my God!

That's so great Emily! Glad to see how the Lord is providing. You may also want to try yard sales. I don't know what they are like in your area, but I've been able to get most of our baby things from yard sales for so cheap!
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to see the church family provide for you! Another suggestion is checking out freecycle.com. Being on a limited budget this has really helped me to locate items in my area that other folks are just trying to 'clean' out to decorate our home! Many hugs.
