Little Girl in the Children's Home.. Part 2
Emily [my soon to be 18 yr old granddaughter] has
a mission.. She wanted every little girl in the
Children's Home to have a new dress of their own.
She ask me to help her.. She took dresses to them
before Christmas[2016]. They were thrilled with the
dresses. And very appreciative.
S0---- When Spring time arrived , She
wanted to take them another dress. 💕 Emily is a special
girl.. She has a heart for people, who are in need. So very
proud of her .
I would like to say a special thank you to My and Emily's
friend, Diane Osborne. She donated most of the fabric for
these dresses.. We appreciate you . Hugs.
I would also like to say thank you to my daughter in law
Gina. She helped sew these dresses, and made this possible.
Emily and I appreciate you and love you.
Emily is so kind and caring! She is a great person for others to look up too!
ReplyDeleteThank you Vickie.. She is truly a caring girl. So very proud of her.
DeleteYour granddaughter is a sweetheart. The dresses are beautiful. Enjoy your weekend.
ReplyDeleteThank you Kelly.. Hope you have a wonderful week too.
DeleteSuch pretty, colorful dresses! You, Emily, your friend and your daughter-in-law are all so wonderful for doing this! Thank you for doing this.
ReplyDeleteThank you BLess. You are sweet..
DeleteThey are beautiful. Do you by any chance know how to make a couch cover?
ReplyDeleteThank you Danielle.
DeleteNo. I don't know how to make a couch cover.. One time [many years ago, I got the bright idea to re-upholster my couch and chair.. Bought the fabric.. tore the old off and oh my.......... what a job.. I soon discovered I did not know how to re-upholster furniture.. I had to cover with quilts for ever... until I could buy a new couch..Learned my lesson.lol
The dresses are so pretty. How many children are in the home? Are they in the states or overseas somewhere? Just curious, but it looks like a great project!
ReplyDeleteHi Becky,
DeleteIt is a really wonderful childrens home.. They are not federal funding. strickly donations and people giving of themselves.
It is in Mississippi. My granddaughter will be going to college close to it. So , she will be able to visit .She is very happy about that.
They have about 10 , very small houses in the block and each house has a married couple to over see the kids in that house.. They like to have no more than 6-7 kids per home, but sometimes they have up to 10.. They even have an apartment building [2-3 apt-] and the grown kids that were once in the home and now go to college can live there if thy choose.. So, I am not sure how many kids they have at the moment?
Thank you so much..It was a blessing to sew them for the girls and to help Emily with her mission.
The dresses look cute. How many did you make? Do they go overseas, or in the states? What a great project!
ReplyDeleteThis go round, we did 21 dresses.. There was enough for all the little girls.. yea.. It is in Ms. Have a blessed day.
DeleteShame on me...All this time you've commented over my way and I've said nothing to you! Well the truth is, I didn't realize you had a blog until today. So I just read through and enjoyed my break in my day. Thank you for coming by so often to 'talk' to me Judy, and from now on, may I be a better neighbor to you!
ReplyDeleteI especially enjoyed this post. Your grand daughter already has a HUGE heart for others. She must be very special.
