The Lord is so good! I just gotta tell you what He did for me!!!
Recently, I asked Caleb what he wanted to be for Halloween and he said he wants to be Spiderman. And being the cheap frugal mother that I am I went to Ebay to find a good deal. I know that a Spiderman costume can be had from Walmart for about $15, but you know me, I just don't want to pay that much.
The other day, as I was sitting in the dreaded dental chair, the hygenist asked me what my kids were going to be for Halloween. I told her of Caleb's desire and that I had been waiting for a good deal on Ebay. She has boys that are a little older than Caleb and offered the Spiderman costumes that they have (because they are too small). Plus, when asked, she said she did not want me to pay her for them.
How awesome is that??! A FREE costume!!! I didn't ask for it, but the Lord provided anyway. And during a time that we are pinching pennies around here, it couldn't have come at a better time!
But I still didn't feel right about taking something that cost me nothing, so I whipped up some cards for her. I hope she likes them!
So.......Caleb got this
and she got these!
Not a bad trade, don'tcha think?!
**stay tuned....another swap post coming soon!

Oh, but those things ARE important, and God knows.
Praise God for His provision. Michelle is right, those things are important. Especially to a sweet little boy named Caleb. :)
Sounds like a great deal to me! Nice cards!
