Hope's New Car




Well, we have moved another step forward on this wonderful journey of life. If you have not heard, we have replaced two of the three biggest parts on the Jeep and are now back to the original drive feeling of why we wanted the Jeep. But in the process, we have now gained a little red, or I should say, Hope has gained a little red thing to haul her and her sister around town. A big THANK YOU!!!! goes out to Gammy who purchased the car, saying that it is only a coincidence that the car is Jawja red. Yea right.... As you can see by the pictures, the car was placed in her assigned parking space at school without her knowing anything about it.
Robyn and Gammy, had the car washed, balloons placed around the car and backed into the parking spot. Hope and Emma were waiting in the carpool line to be picked up when word spread that someone was getting a car it looked like, with people standing around and the car with balloons. It took about five minutes for the word to reach Hope and then a little later for Emma to come over to see who it was. Hope's first statement was....." Is this a joke?" No way..... you see, we had a little talk on the way to school about trying to get the car, costs, insurance and the gas issue. With all that has happened with our family in the last few weeks, what a great blessing that Hope was able to get the car that she needed. What an AWESOME GOD we serve...... As you can see by the pictures, there was celebration.....shock and then this morning, the first drive to school by herself. As for Emma, she is headed toward Granny bear's place at Camp Kanuga in Hendersonville. She, along with her entire 7th grade class will be having a blast until Friday.
We ask that you think about her and us while she is away.
Have a fruitful day,
Us
