We just met the sweetest ladies! On the elevator on the way up to see
Penny there were 3 ladies with bags and bags of goodies. Turns out
that they were going to the PICU and the goodies they had were to love
on PICU families. Never have I been so excited to be a PICU parent!
They have been making hats for the sweet babies here and when Penny
got her first one it touched me so much. With the way the pregnancy
went and this whole crazy road we've been on I haven't been able to
make the kinds of things for them that I always dreamed I would do for
my babies. Seeing my sweet girl in a handmade hat just gave me the
comfort I needed at that moment. It was just another way the Lord has
provided for me every little need. So meeting these ladies was a very
special moment.
Today Penny got a new hat that tops all I've ever seen. Thank you
ladies if the Southwind Garden Club for loving on us and our baby
during this difficult time.
That is absolutely darling! When we had a one-year-old in the hospital several years ago, I was overwhelmed and blessed when my baby received a sweet pink cross-stitched pillow, made by some sweet lady we've never met. It was a huge encouragement to me. Years later, the little pillow still brings a smile to my face. Glad to hear that sweet ladies are still doing "angel duty" at children's hospitals ... :-)

Aww- We'll have to get a pic of her and Nina side-by-side in their Minnie hats one day. (I have to say, I think Penny's will last longer!)
ReplyDeleteYeah for "heart warriors" in yarn!
