The love of friends

After a very long day in Destin with the bus contest winners, we finally made it home. I realized I hadn't been able to check the mail and ran to get it. I love checking the mail now that I get free samples and coupons like crazy :-) It was the normal bank statements, flyer for summer camp, flyer for a new restaurant, etc. BUT, there was a very pretty envelope with no return address. Hmmmm. Once I got inside, I opened it. It was a single piece of stationary with writing on it. It said, "Jimmy & Samantha, ENJOY... Do something fun for yourselves! Look under the card!!!!" So, I looked under the card and started crying. (I am emotional when this kind of stuff happens anyway, but being pregnant, even more so, lol) This is what was inside...



So, now I am trying to decide what we should do. Any ideas?

I can't believe somebody gave us a $100!!! We are so blessed with friends that love us, and would do something like this for us. What a blessing they are to my little family!! If anyone reading this blog knows who it was, please, please tell them thank you for me. They have no idea how much of an encouragement they were to Jimmy and I.  

What a blessing the love of a friend is.

Thank you! God has been very good to us, and we definitely don't deserve it.
