Thanks Heaven for little presents...

Well, today was good, I found another tablecloth, 2 sets of cloth napkins, 2 pot handlers and 8 gorgeous placemats, while my Boricua was in line to pay, I look in the necklaces and pins bin, and I found a small First Communion pin without even looking for one, oh, I know that was sent from Heaven.

I few days ago We were looking for the Rosary sets for our Girls, I only found one set with the Rosary, Bible and a First Communion Pin, so for my other daughter I picked up just a Bible and a Rosary. I wanted my girls to be sort of "even" to avoid the classic "why her and not me" type of discussion, so I was a little dissapointed, but oh well I kept up with our daily tasks.

That's why I believe that little pin was a precious gift from Above, something totally unexpected and so small, but has brought so much joy, I love those gifts from God, those gifts that other people may find ridiculous, but only our Father who knows our hearts knows the joy they'll bring to us.




My findings today.... total damage $12.00 not bad, not bad at all... 8-)

Another tablecloth, I can never have too many, I simply find them beautiful...

Another view of the 'knit/lace???' tablecloth I found today for only $2.99


I found 8 placemats they are made in Italy....

Beautiful scene... love this placemats...


2 sets of cloth napkins, first one with very "mexican" colors, very intense, second one a buttery yellow...


The Bible and Rosary bought a few days ago with the "Gift" the Communion pin I found today..

Thanks Julie.... It was almost magical, right there buried under mismatched earrings it was the pin, my heart just "jumped" with joy.
I love Hydrangeas too. ;)
Have a very blessed weekend...

Pretty Communion set. I agree about the gifts from Above being the best - only He knows the desires of our hearts. Love those placemats, too.
