Of dreams, friends and God...
>> Thursday, July 1, 2010
Those of you who know me well know that it has always been a dream of mine to play the harp. I have looked off and on for several years at harps online and read books about them. I never did quite get around to getting one mostly because I keep spending my money on something else. :-P
I had been praying about it and was more than a little bummed when once again the harp was bumped down the priority list by my dear beloved camera breaking. :-( I came home from a very bummy day of repair shops and repair men that I am still SURE were trying to rip me off! ;-) I had just gotten to the point of deciding it was okay and after all God has a way in everything and it was just time and money... nothing to worry about.
I pulled in the driveway and there was the oddest shaped box on the front step..? Taking a closer look I could not believe my eyes! There was the very harp I had intended/wanted to purchase and had just given up to God's timing!
Long story short, the Rebelution Forum Team got together on it and bought it for me! (along with "Basic harp for Beginners" the book)
I cried..... then I dried my tears, made some more inquiries and then cried some more. ♥ Hey, I am a girl... I can DO that!
I am still just blown away by their thoughtfulness and kindness and how darn sweet of them!!!!! ♥
Okay, I love you guys, and I will shut up and produce the pictures I know you all want to see. ;-)



I love love love LOVE it!!!!♥♥♥♥♥

Exactly the same size as my lap harp...I guess I could have figured it out by counting the strings in the photo and saved you the question. :) What fun!
