The Best Friend Story...

This is what I'm calling "The Best Friend China". What a story it holds.  My Best Friend-Dena's mom Cathy headed out on the 100 Mile Yard Sale today, this amazing set of china, along with it's amazing story found her along the way. She called me to tell me the story, and now I'll share it with you. 
Cathy spotted this beautiful 8 piece setting at a random yard somewhere on the route. When she and the lady who was selling it were putting it in the car, the seller commented that Cathy had come prepared. Cathy had packed some boxes and newspaper to keep the dishes safe on the way home! Cathy told her about me, her daughter's best friend, and our plans for The Wedding China.
The lady who was selling the china then said to Cathy. "This china belonged to my best friend. She died of a brain aneurism and left her china to my daughter. My daughter never used it and when she told me she was selling it, I've been sad all day. But my best friend would have been so happy to know that such a happy celebration was coming out of a situation that was so sad." 

WOW! What a blessing for our wedding day. A true reminder that God always knows the perfect plan!
