At Home With Jesus!

A happy blessing!
For some time now, we have been wanting to get a wooden swingset for the kids - but we have been astounded at the prices that they are asking for them! We decided it just wasn't feasible for us to make monthly payments on a swingset! 
Even the 'build-it-yourself ones were several hundreds of dollars -
(and then you have to spend an entire weekend putting it together.)
...And when your nice weather weekends are few and far between - it's hard to give one up!
So what a blessing it was to us a few weeks ago when one of our neighbors approached us and asked if we would be interested in theirs. Her children had outgrown it, she said, and they would be willing to sell it to us for under $100!
We gratefully accepted - and so this week we had a bunch of friends and neighbors help us move it from 2 yards over.
I am simply amazed at how generous God is.
This isn't even something I had been praying about, ( I thought it was too frivolous of a request,) and yet God knew my heart's desire. He not only provided an affordable playset, but he also provided for the generous help in the form of 'manpower' from our friends and neighbors (some of whom I've never even met before!) to help us move it to our backyard. I am so grateful!
Our whole family is praising God for his awesome gift!
