Generosity : 1,000 Gifts
Photo by micah.e
A couple of nights ago while sitting in Christian’s room, I looked around and noticed anew how much other people have given us.
I am overwhelmed by generosity. Every item on my list today was a gift from someone else.
307. My new bike, an early birthday present from A.J.
308. Christian’s crib, a gift from our home group.
309. Christian’s dresser.
310. Our couch and chair.
311. Our TV and DVD player (on loan, but still!).
312. A delicious loaf of bread, a gift from my friend at church today.
313. A baby closet bursting with clothes, new and hand-me-down, from family and friends.
314. My car (partially).
315. The rocking chair in Christian’s room.
316. Our washing machine and dryer.
317. A kitchen full of dishes, utensils, and appliances.
318. Sheets, bedding, and towels.
319. Picture frames.
320. A beautiful vase from my nana.
321. Our video camera.
322. Lovely handmade quilts for Christian.
323. Baby paraphranelia – toys, a high chair, exersaucer, pack ‘n’ play, etc.
324. The love of our family and friends – relationships that surround us and are worth much more than any material possession.
Wow, that is such a blessing to be given all those things! It would add up to a good chunk of money if you had to buy them all – I should take a look around my house and see how many gifts are in here. 
Isn’t that great!? We too, have been blessed by so many, especially in the baby supplies and kid clothes area! God bless generous friends!
We have SO MUCH here in America, don’t we. Love the list!
ps–love the new look/layout/design…it’s new, right, or have I just not been on here in too long?
