Jehovah Jireh: God Provides Little Tikes Playthings!






Oh, How the Lord provides even the unnecessary things! The number of Little Tikes things we have increased this week with the addition of the 8-in-1 Playground. The following is a list of what Little Tikes things we have acquired over the last 3 years and how they came to be at our house:
  • covered bridge/tunnel: friends moving to Hawaii didn't want to bring it (shown with Amelie and Sarah above)
  • small covered platform with slide: same as above(shown with little Amelie rolling ball down slide)
  • toy box: was our neighbors' grandson's(not pictured)
  • car: hand-me-down from Duncan's brother's family(shown with Amelie the pumpkin head at the wheel)
  • Victorian Kitchen: from the sister-in-law of a neighbor of some friends of ours--not kidding(shown in the background of the tea party picture)
  • picnic table: from the trash of our across the street neighbors--we're not proud(shown with Amelie eating her dinner)
  • 8-in-1 playground: the neighbors of some friends from church were throwing it away and our friends scooped it up knowing we and our new neighbors might be able to get some use out of it. We cleaned it up and put it together yesterday and Amelie and William are thrilled. Pictures of this one to follow.
