Gettin' Ready

Dear Ruthie- We are getting everything ready for your arrival.  The only thing I haven't done is to put up your bed.  There is a queen size bed in your room that I am waiting on Nana to come and get before I put your toddler bed together.  Here are a few picture of some things in your room and their significance.

I made this canvas for you last week.  Behind the butterflies are 2 verses:

Proverbs 25:25 Like cold water to a weary soul, So is good news from a distant land. 

Ruth 1:16 where you go, I will go, and where you stay, I will stay. Your people shall be my people, and your God, my God.

This dresser used to be brown and it was your dad's when he was growing up.  We painted it to match your new bed

This trunk was given to my parents as a wedding gift.  I painted it, added the flowers, and had the cushion on top made to match your bedding.  Sharon Rice made the cushion for you.  Mommy isn't that good.

This was given to me today by a member of our church, Rhonda Chambers.  She made this just for you.  Our friends at church cannot wait to meet you.  You are already loved by so many people.

I love you Ruthie, 

Mom
