This House Is Officially On The Market

The second day of Spring here in Maine is COLD!!! However, I couldn't wait to put out this,


They have officially put this house we are renting on the market, so I also wanted it to look as appealing as possible,



It is so cold outside, but after all, it is spring,



And I've been thinking about "what" to put out on the door for about a week, and came up with this... It reminds me of Girlfriend.


Left over flowers, basket from Goodwill that I sprayed last night, material I had from a lawn sale, last year.

I think it came out just fine.

Oh yeah, we received another letter from Ben yesterday. I don't think we've heard from him this much in the last few years!!! It does make it easier for us to hear from him. Thank you for your prayers. He does ask each time he writes.

Hugs from Maine

It looks beautiful! Your landlord is so lucky to have a renter that takes such good care of their property. I bet they'll have no trouble selling, thanks to you. :)

So glad you heard from Ben again. I'm sure lots of things will begin to impact him differently as he compares his current situation with the life he has led under your caring and love. God grows them up so much during times away from us. As much as I hate to think about my daughter being gone I know it will happen and I will love the work I see God doing in her life.

You haven't mentioned (unless I missed it) what you guys will be doing for a home? Do you have one in mind? Will you be renting again or buying? I bet the owners of this house are so thrilled to have quality people like you to show their house. What a blessing to them. Hope they realize it. But if they don't, I'm sure all of us DO!
