Joy and Children
Friends good evening to all!! just a quick note and then I'll be off on to the next topic... Well, many of us have been so blessed and sometimes we tend to take one particular blessing for granted. Well ok you say that could be said of many things but, I am really sure that this one has not come into the mind of many people ….
My wife and I have been looking for beds for our children and have been using the Craig’s list fervently in our efforts to acquire these articles. We have been successful for the most part but I am not telling you this because I want you to help us but because of a particular ad we saw on Craig’s list. I will post the link for you here shortly. The reason that it caught our eye was the motherly voice that rang out at us in its gentle plea. It wasn’t a desperate plea but one of a great desire to make possible that one thing that most of us have taken for granted. This young woman has put an advertisement on Craig’s list selling hand made toddlers blankets for $35 dollars. Now I don’t know about you but that is a lot of work for that little bit of earnings. My mother has in the past done these, a little more intricately, for her little grandchildren. I have seen the time and dedication that these blankets take and I am sure that I didn’t ever express enough my gratitude for her effort, but mom it is awesome that you have taken the time to do this for our little ones. Well now the reason this young lady is doing this….. They, her and her husband, are going through or saving up for fertility treatments. Friends…. That is dedication to her cause. The only reason that I am posting this is that we would like to help this couple in our small way. They didn’t ask and we don’t know them personally but I think she can be commended on her efforts and dedication. So if any one of my friends out there know of some one who could use a blanket, this might be a good time to be a blessing to at least one family if not two.J And if nothing else just think how difficult and frustrating it would …… the wanting to be a mom and dad and not being able too. Do most of us take this for granted??
With love and May God bless .........................................................................................................................

Date: 2008-04-26, 8:54PM CDTI am making and selling baby/toddler bed blankets to help us fund infertility treatments so we can have our own baby. We can work together on a pattern and color scheme to get the blanket just like you want it. E-mail me what gender you are wanting a blanket for or want type of pattern you want or if you want a surprise (certain gender) with a specific color scheme. I am selling them for $35 which includes shipping. Below are some blankets I have made and already shipped and some that are made and ready for a new home.
