the castle has been found

you still have to go to the previous post to read the story if you haven't yet...
but i wanted those of you that are looking to know that the castle has been found and ordered and it's on it's way to our house!

a friend read the post and talked to another friend (both of whom were here ALL DAY YESTERDAY pricing stuff!) and they figured out what it was (it's a HOTEL...not a castle!) and found it on Ebay and ordered it and when i got home from ballet i had a message letting me know!

AMAZING!!!!!!

i let the friend tell bailey on the phone.
it was precious.
i think it will be even more precious when she sees it...but this was cute, too!

the top left is her telling bailey how proud she is of her.
bottom left is her telling bailey how she was trying to find the castle.
top right is her beginning to say she found the castle.
and bottom right is bailey GETTING that she was going to REALLY get that castle!!!

you people are amazing!
THANK YOU for looking!!!
i'll post about it once she receives it! :-)

for first we learn to give, so we can truly learn what it means to need, to receive.

So glad you captured this in pictures!! I am AMAZED at her attitude!! Sad to say that my children most likely would not have had that attitude about it. Love that she did.

oh bailey. i know you can't even read this, but your mom can read it to you. God loves you SO much. He is SO proud of you and how your heart loves Him. He loves EVERYTHING about you and was so excited that you were willing to be a blessing to other people - and that is why He found another castle for you!! We love you Bailey!!! Have fun with it!! :) Can Callie come to your house and play with it too one day? :)
