Wow-Miracles and Hard Work!

Well, I posted the blog about the bunk bed and the fact we needed to get one for the boys. Well, since we moved here, Solace has been saying she doesn't fit on her (toddler) bed anymore and she needs a new bed. For a while she even slept down stairs on the guest bed. Well, we cannot afford to get her a bed now and kept telling her to wait for her birthday and maybe she could get a birthday/Christmas gift of a new bed. However, on Wednesday a friend in our ward said she had a bed she had just pulled apart to get rid of and wondered if we could use it. The next morning (yesterday) she came over to the house with the pulled apart bed, sheets, and bed skirt-the whole shebang. I spent a good part of yesterday sweating and laboring over putting the bed together. Thank you to the Youngs for the bed-it was a true blessing and Solace was so happy to have a bed that fits. Here is the final product (ignore the messiness):
The girls room!

Very cute! We're hoping to get bunk beds for our boys and twin bed for Kyara for christmas, but they are expensive. . . maybe we'll get a miracle blessing too (that's how we got Kyara's toddler bed)! :) Looks great!

That's awesome! I'm glad that Solace didn't have to wait for a combined brithday christmas gift. I've never experienced that myself, but I'm sure it sucks.
