Passing it on...

Through the pregnancy, it's been tempting to buy cute baby clothes, but we've done a good job controlling that.  We only have a few pieces.  We figured people always like to buy cute outfits, even when what you REALLY need is practical things, so that's what we've avoided buying clothing for her.   Well, wow, generosity has taken place in a serious manner.  One of my coworkers has a daughter who was born in late August a few years ago.  That means that the sizing and season of her daughter's clothes will be similar to our needs.  She said she would bring some stuff in that she would like to get rid of.  People say these kinds of things, so I wasn't counting on it.  Monday when I came in, there were 3 BIG boxes by my desk.  All clothes!   We are officially set on clothing for our daughter  - at least for the first year and a half!    She passed on everything from newborn to 18 months!  We have lots of great things from shoes to onesies to sleepers to bibs.  My mom also had picked up some cute things to contribute to our clothing needs last time I saw her.  We are so blessed to have all this wonderful stuff without having to acquire it on our own.  Attached is a picture of just SOME the great stuff my coworker passed on....this picture is only newborn to 6 months, huge stacks!  Even though she said she didn't want any money, I plan to do something nice for her.   This was such a nice gesture and needs to be noticed :)
