I just want to take a moment and say how incredibly thankful for ALL the wonderful women I have met through this blogging world! In the last week women I don't even know have generously donated items to our fundraiser! I feel overwhelming joy right now, thank you Lord for these women's hearts and their willingness to serve others! Over the last week I have made a very special friend with Kristina over at One Happy Mama , she makes the most cheerful blog designs and art you've ever seen. If you haven't been over to her blog yet, YOU NEED TO GO NOW!!!! Go ahead I'll wait;)
Wasn't I right? Seriously, it's the happiest place ever, right up there with Disney Land! She has a beautiful heart for the Lord and has been richly blessed with a beautiful family to boot! She is donating some really cool stuff, I can't wait to show you!!!! And if that wasn't enough, she decided to make me the beautiful new blog banner that you see above. Seriously when she told me she wanted to do this for me my jaw fell on the floor. I was so excited! I love how it turned out. But let me tell you a little something about Kristina, this girls got a GREAT BIG heart. So much so that after I told her what I was going to name the fundraiser she went ahead and designed a logo for that as well! I am just so THANKFUL!!! By the way I know I am using a lot of exclamation points, and I don't foresee an end coming soon:)
So with all that being said I'd like to reveal the name of our fundraiser........
Is that not the most adorable thing you've ever seen? The name was inspired by a lovely lady who is also donating to our fundraiser who wrote in an email to me "Dream big Danielle, this is God we're talkin' about! He dreams big for us so let's dream big together." Seriously amazing women that have come into my life! All coming alongside a fellow believer in Christ, whom they have never met, and being His hands and feet to help bring this precious little one home. I'm amazed by God's goodness, but really I shouldn't be surprised at all. I serve a loving God who has always provided and has blessed me beyond my imagination, even when I am undeserving. I am sincerely humbled.
So please put this on your calendars, the fundraiser starts on April 11th and will end on April 25th, I hope you will spread the word like crazy for us and please keep our family and this fundraiser in your prayers. Also, if you still have something to donate or know someone who might, please let me know. I want this to be BIG!!! I want this fundraiser to be a blessing to others, I'm already praying for the people who are going to be donating, that they would be greatly blessed to know all their lives that they were apart of something BIG. That they helped save a life and brought abundant joy to a family who is in love with an amazing little boy. And I am hoping for the blessing of making some more friends along the way, please if you've never said hi before I'd love to hear from you in the comments below:)
