Countdown to thanksgiving: day 16- the generosity of others

My baby turned two today, so that alone made today exciting! However, I was especially touched by how God works through people's generosity. 
Adara got to open MORE birthday presents today!
Then, when I was just thinking about how Adara and I could use some new clothes, my mom brings us bags and bags from some family friends!
God blesses us even when I forget to pray! I feel so trendy with all these super cute clothes, and Adara has more cute clothes that will fit her!
I also went to a baby shower for our baby boy. Again, people showered us with gifts and I really enjoyed the time spent with everyone.
God used His people's generosity today to remind me to trust Him and not worry! I'm so very thankful for days like today.

Countdown to Thanksgiving: Day 8-extra help

Today we threw a birthday party for Adara, and it wouldn't have been possible without the help from family. So many people donated decorations, helped clean up before and after, and got food and decorations out and up in record time. Adara had a wonderful time, and I'm so thankful for the people that made her party special.

Countdown to Thanksgiving: day 7-party food

Today I'm thankful for a full fridge and pantry. Because Adara is allergic to eggs and soy, we're having lots of fruits and veggies at the party. I also made almond flour muffins instead of cake. We haven't had this much food in the house in a while! So excited to celebrate with people tomorrow and not have to worry about allergies.
