I am just amazed at the large hearts that people have for people in need. You know, through my life I have been the one who was giving. I didn't ever think I would be on the receiving end. Today I found out how big peoples hearts really are! I went to church this morning and was approached by a woman that I knew little about and she told me about a crib that she had that she was selling for cheap and I could have it if I wanted it. I accepted her offer and went to pick it up, little did I know she had a garage full of maternity clothes, baby clothes, baby blankets, a changing bed, baby sheets, baby books glore and a BEAUTIFUL large white canopy crib. She gave it all to me for free. I couldn't believe that people were this nice! Then she told me to go to the community store house to get food stamps and I did. I called and they asked me what I needed and told me to come up there in an hour and pick up the groceries. I went to get them and it was more than I expected. They also gave me $20 gift cards for all the members in my family to get a new outfit for Easter as well as a gift card for a free ham or turkey from Walmart. It is hard for me to express in words how grateful I am to people who generally care about each other. The most thankfulness that I can give is to say God bless the giving, God bless the receiving, and God bless the caring. Without your help, people, my family, would be without.
