I am overwhelmed by the generosity of those around us.
As soon as we made it public that we were expecting, all of our friends and family were quick to offer anything they had that could help us.
Obviously our parents are the first to want to get us anything. From the crib to clothing to car seats, they were looking to get it all for us.
My sister, and two of the wife's best friends instantly cleaned out their closets and gave her all their maternity clothing. Boxes and boxes of it. I don;t even know where to put it all. There are boxes all over our bedroom. We need to find a solution for it.
The wife's old boss has offered us a nearly new crib. Her current manager is looking to give us her bumbo, swing, and a bunch of other items that I can't think of. She also gave here more maternity clothing to add to the pile.
My coworker has told me that if we are having a girl, she has a lot of clothing for them. And if it;s a boy, we have a lot of options also as the rest of our friends/family with children all have had boys.
I love the people that I surround myself with.
