Today's rummage was a HUGE success. It far surpassed anything we could have possibly imagined! In fact we were beginning to worry there wouldn't be enough items left for tomorrow :)
Our very first customer arrived before the signs had even been placed. Mom and Lauren left to go put out all the signs figuring I could handle this single customer solo. Turns out people began to follow them as they placed the signs and by the time they got back we were swamped! There was a steady stream of people all day long and many of them were adoptive mothers who wanted to come hear our story and share theirs. God is so good ... we are in awe of the blessings bestowed on us lately.
My sister's friends were even nice enough to stop by and lend some assistance. The best part about receiving donated items for a rummage is that moment when a potential customer asks "What is this?" and you have to say "Whatever you want it to be" since you have no freaking clue lol.
And of course it wouldn't be a rummage for adoption without my
Adoption is Beautiful shirt! Don and I are so thankful to everyone who donated their clutter. This rummage success would not have been possible without you.
Since we had such an amazing turn out we are going to need more clutter for our June 1st and 2nd dates. If you are still spring cleaning and have items you would like to donate we pick up, just text or email us :)
Lastly we need to thank little Greyson for all of the hand me downs he gave baby C today. We are so excited everything is adorable!! Thanks G-man!
This mama to be is exhausted so time for bed. I hope all of you are enjoying your weekend and if you haven't stopped by the rummage yet, there is always tomorrow :)
Could not have enjoyed spending the day with you any more than I did. God is amazing, people are amazing, family is amazing. We are blessed!
