Just want you to know that I'm just another mom, living in Indiana, with my little boy named Jack & I think of you often and pray for strength for your days.

The happiness on Margaret's face almost makes me want to cry. Your daughter is beautiful.

What's not to lob?

(Sorry. Couldn't help myself.)

Your daughter is must adorable.

Wanderlust said...

Oops, that was supposed to be '...just adorable'!

Glad to see the lobster worked its magic and both sold some real estate then made Margaret happy! Very sweet.

I can't tell you how much this picture makes me smile! :o)

Hooray for Lobbie (and for a mom who found the courage to move outside her comfort zone)!

Susie said...

Your daughter looks very pleased with that big lobster, bless her heart. You are a good mommy.:):) smiles, Susie

Mrs. Beckmann said...

SO glad the real estate agent followed through and got you the lobster. Even more proud that you stepped out of your comfort zone and make it happen. What an example you are to your daughter (and the rest of us too).

Andrea said...

She got it! YAY!

*love*

Love the lobsters ~ love your sweet family ~ love your amazing and courageous Margaret ~ love your thoughtful and loving angel Jack

Love that you are so generous to share your dear family with us.

It's a quiet Sunday morning here, and thoughts of your family came to mind as I sat here sipping my coffee. I'm so glad I logged on the computer just now to stop by your blog. Margaret's beautiful smile is a day maker.

Hurray! Margaret got her Lobbie. Looks nice and clean, and bed bug free. An added bonus for sure!

Nelly said...

Priceless! I'm so happy she got her pal.

Marley C. said...

You do realize now that everytime I see anything lobster related, I'm going to buy it and get your address to send it to Margaret, right?

Kate Coveny Hood said...

I see a lot of lobster-related novelty items coming M's way...

Love the little family of 3.

OSMA said...

Lobbie looks right at home. His huggable self was sent right to your girl because you asked and look at her precious smile. What a gift. (She looks especially proud of you in that first picture.) Well done and welcome home, Lobbie!

Yep, still not seeing how that lobster was supposed to help sell a house. ;-) He ended up exactly where he was meant to be.

Ask and ye shall receive.........

So happy that Lobbie has found his forever home with Margaret. :-)

I love seeing that smile!

Kathy at kissing the frog said...

What a wonderful sign from Jack!

New Mom said...

I've had an extreme case of commenter's block and haven't written anything here in a while. The truth is, you so often take my breath away and leave me speechless and I just clam up trying to write anything at all. I still check in here every day multiple times a day and I am still incredibly blessed by the insights you choose to share with us and I still hold you up in prayer! Lobbie is awesome... such a great story! Praying for many many more God winks to come your way.

Alexandra said...

Love how it's a family of 3.

An incredible perfect find, Anna.

Jack is sending messages from everywhere.

Unknown said...

And now I'm laughing. I'm really all over the spectrum today.

Lobbie (plural) is cute.

It is wonderful that this Lobbie showed up just before your challenging anniversary. Perhaps he is meant to help your family get through this time.

What a blessing!

One crazed mommy said...

That is just awesome! :) Glad Lobbie arrived safe and sound.

I can't believe how much Margaret has grown over the past year, Anna. Your little girl is growing up so beautifully, inside and out. You must be so proud of your little dynamo.

I went on vacation... and came back and saw all these new posts and I almost forgot about the lobster! This makes me so happy! Just as happy as your daughter! I was driving near where you live on my vaca and I felt so much closer to you guys. I mean obviously I was but I felt your family in my heart.
