Our craft show was a huge success! I had been painting and crocheting since summer, Cindy had made a ton of jewelry, and we had invited the whole neighborhood and all our local friends and family. Then my friend Susan, who is also adopting from China, joined in with her stuff and invited people. Susan and I were both overwhelmed at the crew that showed up. When you are trying to sell stuff that you made, it can be hard to think that people would be interested and it's hard to ask for help, as we have been doing this whole adoption with the financial aspect. So to see our house packed with folks who were so supportive and so interested in buying our stuff was hugely encouraging. We finished our puzzle too, which is just awesome. We ending up getting $2600 in sales for our family and Susan made a bunch too!!! So thankful for this community. (Now back to painting for next weekend.... :) )
