Our closests overfloweth

Well…we have worked with only breaks and the end-of-day meltdown but our house is still a wreck. We did, however, remove 2 trunkloads of excess clothing and shoes to be shared with others as they have been shared with us. I told the girls they could have a garage sale Saturday if the weather permits but after that, everything goes! Somewhere, I don’t care where. But, hopefully, to someone who needs them.
Even though we’re up to our eyeballs in sorting, I find myself in the mindset and "heartset" appropriate for Thanksgiving. I am so thankful for the abundance! We DO NOT have the finances necessary to dress our kiddos in even the cheapest clothes but, yet, God fits them in pretty snazzy attire. My spunky, funky 13 y.o. seems to have a steady flow of the necessary items for her personality. Though I have 4 girls in a row, then 4 boys, they don’t all share the same build. I thought I would be able to pass stuff on down the line but, NOOO, my oldest boy is thin, the next on husky. The oldest girl is full-figured and short like me, the next girl tall and thin. But wouldn’t you know God was all over that the whole time? Whenever we have lacked what we needed, we either prayed and waited or went out a bought the needed pair of jeans or snow boots. But you know what would show up either way? The needed pair of jeans or snow boots. And if we had not trusted God to provide and went shopping, do you know what our Abba would do? Make sure his stuff was better than our stuff.
I was going to post pics of our mess and blessings but itty bit woke up so I’ll have to do that another time. I figured I’m not the only one who’d like to see someone else’s house a wreck! LOL!

Well, I’ve posted 2 days in a row. Maybe I have found a time slot that works for baby and me. We’ll try again tomorrow night and see if we can’t keep the ball rolling!
God bless!
