Yard Sale

Words can not express my gratitude for everyone and their help with our yard sale. This morning I felt very overwhelmed with the rain and all the donations. By the end of the day I am so thankful and overwhelmed with the time, money and donations that everyone has given to us. The nice weather finally came out and things turned out well. I have only a few things left.

One of the most amazing things happened. I had a man who asked for info about why we are doing this. I didn't think much of this, he asked how much we needed and all the info. I thought it was weird and but gave him basic info. He borrowed my neighbors computer and paid for the hotel room for Kimmie and I. Words can not express my gratitude for this amazing donation. His wife talked him into giving me his name and phone number just in case of any problems. But he wanted to do this completely anonymous. He said that he use to have seizures as a child. I asked how to thank him and he said to pray and thank the Lord that he stopped and was in a position to be able to help.

I can't believe that this amazing man and his wife came and did that for us. I am also amazed that so many of my friends and family came and help, donated and were there for us. THANK YOU!
I love you!!! I could never repay you for your love and help!

That is amazing. I am glad things went well. I was volunteering at the Arthritis Foundation's Walk Saturday morning and felt bad that I couldn't be at your home as well. When do you leave?
