Well, it was a long...LOOOONG Saturday, but we got our bedroom all finished and I am so looking forward to having a new king bed to sleep in from now on!
I got the mattress pad and pillows for the bed. Then I went around and bought dessert for our two Easter dinners. While at the store, I ran into a mom of a little girl who lost her life due to organ failure. This mom (the mother of Ruby) has dedicated her life to not only remembering little Ruby, but getting people aware of organ donations. It is called Donate Life and I stopped and talked with her. She was inside the grocery store and in tears! She said she had gotten so many dirty looks and stares because she was inside the store. People didn't stop to ask her what she was there for, they just assumed she was trying to sell something. We talked for a good long while, and I was blessed to have finally met her. What an incredible woman! So for little Ruby and her mom, go to Donate Life and become an organ donor...you never know....
We had a little Easter get together with my Brother, his wife, their daughter, and my great-aunt at my parent's house this afternoon. It was a fun time and the kids had great fun finding the Easter eggs grandma had hidden around the backyard. I am grateful for fun family times! Dinner was good and Aunt Ramona made an amazing pie! She is 91 years old and still one of THE most talented people I know.
So we came home and a friend from church helped put together the rest of the bed. Time for some MUCH needed sleep! Looking forward to tomorrow!
