my mailbox was a happy place on saturday!
aren't they BEAUTIFUL?!!
my girls were so excited....can we keep them???...are they for us??....do these go on our beds???
SO HAPPY.
they are made by chrissie grace.
she is so talented.
her shop is full of color and creativity.
you will love it over there.
she sent me a collage of the many different examples of the pillows she has made.
chrissie's description:
The scripture or quote is free hand embroidery on my machine.
SO....chrissie came up with an incredible idea.
and i could not have been more excited to jump on board and tell you all about it.
we are calling it.....
my friend AMY is adopting a boy named Davis through Reese's Rainbow!!!
i am so excited for her family!!!!!
proud of her.
love her heart in every way.
chrissie's idea was simple and lovely....AND A SURPRISE!!
we are telling amy about it right now at the same time as telling you.
YAY!
GO TO CHRISSIE'S SHOP....
pick out a beautiful pillow.....any pillow.....and 25% of that sale will go to bring DAVIS home to amy!!
think ahead to christmas or birthdays.
my girls LOVE these.
they would make a great christmas present!
i just can't stop smiling about this.
amy....we are so happy to help bring Davis to your arms as soon as possible.
:)
to God be all the Glory...the Giver of ALL gifts....and the One who Loves and Created Davis for YOU.
LOVE these!! So cute!

Just ordered mine!!! Can hardly wait. I bought one for my BFF's daughter who has lived her entire 11 months in the pediatric Cardiac ICU. This is a perfect gift for her!! And a double blessing in helping bring Davis home. Thanks, Meg. Now I need to order more for my kids. ;)

I was in love with the mother pillow and bought it before I even paged down to see about Davis. Doubled my happiness.

I'm so excited - I just ordered one for my dad for Father's Day! She is customizing it with his name (Philip) and a Bible verse that I chose for him! Thanks for the wonderful idea, Meg!

Okay, first of all--I love the picture of your adorable girlie-girls holding their pillows, and I love that they asked if they could keep them (so sweet!). Those pillows are beautiful. I think I need one to keep, too! : )
