Donations Welcomed!

I put out the word that we are in need of 3T-4T clothes and developmental toys. Today a fellow homeschool mom graciously gave us a little girl's bike (in excellent condition) and a car seat. I explained to her 6 yr old daughter that we were adopting a little girl from China. I showed her Alanna's picture and told her she was going to really enjoy the bike she gave us. As I finished talking to her mom, she noticed the sweatshirt she was wearing was too small on her. The mom said, "If you take off your sweatshirt, you can give that to Alanna too." Her daughter took her shirt off, right there, and gave it to me for Alanna to wear. Now I've heard the saying before, but how awesome that this child was willing to "Give me the shirt right off of her back" to bless a child she's never met. (I also got a hug and kiss out of the deal) Momma, your teaching that girl right. Way to go! And THANK YOU!!
