A Bit of Glad News

Greetings, blog readers. I am actually going to be positive in today's blog and not rant and rave. Shocking, I know. :)
Ok, here's the situation, "My parents went away on a week's vacation". Sorry, I guess I have The Fresh Prince of Bel Air on the brain. Seriously though, here's what REALLY happened. As most of you know, I am collecting dresses for our upcoming prom. Well, I got a message on Facebook the other day from a lady named Wendy Hodges Bailey. She asked me if I was the Debbie Culpepper that JC Copper (it might have been JR) told her about. I sent her back saying that I AM the person taking the dresses, but I don't know the person she mentioned. I told her that I would love to have her donation but that I didn't want to take it under false pretenses. She said that this person had been in her shop, a consignment shop on 119 in Birmingham, and was telling her all about me. She said that she wanted to send me some dresses from her shop. I told her that I would be more than happy to take any dresses she sent me.
Well, I talked to her again yesterday and she said that she was sending...are you sitting down...about TWENTY dresses. She said that she didn't count them when she put them in the box, but that it was something like that. We chatted for a little while, and I told her all about the village. She then offered to send anything else my kids my need. She was truly concerned for the situation of these kids. I am so grateful that she heard about us.
So, to those of you who have been spreading the word about what I am doing here, I thank you very much. And to whichever one of you might have mentioned me to someone name Copper or to someone who might know this person, THANK YOU!
Wendy mentioned last night that she was running two businesses and that she and her husband both teach Sunday School. Please pray for God to bless them in all their endeavors.
Looking forward to Prom,
Debbie
