~ A Special Surprise ~
Marci pieced together 48 rose themed squares, from friends and family, both locally and online, into this beautiful quilt for our baby! What a treasure this will be for her!!!!
I was so touched to see all the thought and love that went into this gift, including lovely squares from women I hardly know. Thank you all so much!!
*It may take me awhile, but hopefully I can take close ups of each square to share with you all, so you can see it up close. The photo hardly does it justice!

Thank you so very much Marci, and to all of you that contributed to making this such a special shower for our baby, our little Christmas Rose!
May God reward you all for your kindness and generosity!!

Prayer of Mothers
Father in heaven, grant me the grace to appreciate the dignity which you have conferred on me. Let me realize that not even the Angels have been blessed with such a privilege—to share in your creative miracle and bring new Saints to heaven. Make me a good mother to all my children after the example of Mary, the Mother of your Son. Through the intercession of Jesus and Mary I ask your continued blessings on my family. Let us all be dedicated to your service on earth and attain the eternal happiness of your kingdom in heaven. Amen.
I am so glad you posted pics!! I have been waiting to see how the quilt came out, it looks so beautiful!!! I hope you feel better!
Oh Thank you Cheryl! I was so surprised to see all the little quilt contributions from all over!! What a special gift! You all are truly amazing!! Thank you also for the adorable little wooden doll! I LOVE IT!!! I'll be sending you a real thank you soon. God bless!
You are blessed to have such wonderful people in your life to celebrate your little one! God bless
Marci did a wonderful job with the quilt and with the entire shower. What a lovely day.
What a beautiful shower! What wonderful gifts too! Thanks for sharing photos. After your post weeks ago about the whispering at a Little Flowers meeting, I was just waiting to hear about a shower in your (and baby Rose's) honor 🙂
The quilt turned out so beautifully, I'm so glad Marci asked me to participate, wish I could have beent there in person sweetie! Many prayers for these last few weeks :))
It all looked so nice. What a great way to begin the celebrations of a new life. I too was glued to your blog waiting for the pictures of the quilt. Marci did a great job pulling off this suprise.
God bless and feel better!

What a beautiful shower, from a beautiful person, you are truly blessed!
Beautiful! Hope you are feeling better by now. At least you didn't get sick until after the fun shower! God Bless.
Oh, Jessica! I'm so happy that it came out so beautifully! Marci did a FANTASTIC job. I think I see my little contribution. 😉
I'm kinda cheating by being on the computer here, but I had to comment. You and little Rose are still in my prayers and I have plenty of time to focus on prayer now that I'm stuck in bed,lol.
P.S. you and your girls look radiant!
As always, thank you for sharing and God bless!
Your so very welcome Jessica! Don't worry about the Thank you cards, you just take care of you and your little one growing inside! God bless you!
