Spreading Blessings!


Hubby expanded our kitchen into the porch this past summer because we were having a difficult time fitting 7 of us at the table in our existing kitchen. We have really appreciated the extra space and the new-to-us table that D's aunt and uncle gave us with only the request that we donate the money that we would have paid them to S's mother. That was a blessing to us and also to her mother. Her mother was able to use a good portion of the money and also help a family who couldn't afford food that month. S insists that when someone blesses someone, that God will spread the blessings.

The next blessing...We were frustrated by the continued lack of counter/cupboard space. We very briefly made up some estimates for purchasing new or even used cupboards and then decided that it was just not going to happen for a while. Well, last night, a different one of D's uncles brought over a truck full of oak cabinets! He is doing work for a Dr. who is remodeling his kitchen, and the Dr. wants to give the old cabinets away. D's uncle mentioned us, and we will have a complete, new-to-us set of cupboards in just a few weeks! I am not sure how this blessing will spread, but we are very excited and thankful! YEAH!
