We've begun our journey with simple steps but we are heading in the right direction. We were fortunate enough to sell our next big piece of furniture, a computer desk and hutch, to a lovely couple from Freemont, IN this past week. As with the grandfather clock, we hated to see it go but we believe it has found a great new home. What a weird way to meet some wonderful new people. They will be praying for us and our journey so we made out two fold on this sale. There is no such thing as too many prayers.
I have also handed down my great grandmother's bedroom set to my 4 year old niece for her 4th birthday which was this past Sunday, Feb 19th. When we delivered the large mirrored vanity to her she was so excited! So was her mom. She is such a little diva and loves to play dress up and put on make up so having a dresser with such a big vanity mirror is a dream come true for her. I could never sell this bedroom set for sentimental reasons and would have spent the money to move it (although I doubt the mirror would have survived unscathed) but it worked out nicely to hand it down to the next generation. You see, I have a boy who is 18 and although the bed and dresser work well for him the vanity mirrored dresser does not. He said, no way! But it has to stay together so Bella Rae is the new heir to this family heirloom. May she pass it on to generations to come.
Hopefully things will continue to move along and fall into place for us. We are moving forward one step at a time... Only 404 days, 7 hours, 44 minutes to meet our goal.
