Red face My mom is the best!

Hi ya'll
I haven't posted in a long time, but I had to share the news!
I had emailed my friend and told her that I wanted to place an order after new years and when I had gotten back from vaction. Well unfortunately my husband and I got news of my brother in law passing unexpectedly and he had no insurance. SO I had to email my friend and told her that I had to hold off til Feb. We had a funeral to pay for.
Well my birthday is on Sunday and I told my mom I wanted a new stamp set, she said give me a few to look at in the catalog and I will send ya one. (She goes thru my friend as well who happens to be lullabelle) anyway I came home from Bible study yesterday to find a Stampin Up! box on my porch, when I opened I felt confused yet excited. It had Headline alphabet(which is one I was to order) Right at home, natural beauty, love noted cards and envys, So saffron stamp pad(one I also was to order), pixie pink refill(another), a white gel pen, noteworthy sab, and gently falling sab. So I called my mom and said did you order some stuff for you and have it sent to me, she said no it is all yours. She wanted to place an order for $50 for me to get an SAB, and lullabelle asked her if she wouldn't mind going half on the headline alphabet and lullabelle added to the order for me to get another SAB. Isn't that wonderful. God has blessed me with a wonderful mother(who is one of my best friends) and another best friend!!!!
On other news to update some of you. My husband returned from Baghdad the end of October. But we found out he goes again in January 2007.
We moved into our brand newly built home the middle of November.
We plan to renew our vows in June for our 10 year ANN. Which I had gotten a little worried when we found out that we had a funeral to pay for, but God has blessed us with good family and friends to help us out, and he also blessed us with a big income tax return this year. I give God all the glory honor and praise!!! I get my 3 stone ring yay!!! God bless you all and take care!
Mindy

Mindy, Happy Birthday!!
Aren't moms' just the best. My mom is the same way. I don't know what I would do without her!. I think the best way we can honor our moms is to model ourselves after them and follow in their footsteps!!
I'm sorry to hear about the passing of your BIL. You sound like you have a very loving family!
