Love is an Action Word

I just want to say thank you to all of the families who have reached out to love on us as we transitioned into life with two more kiddos. 

The meals being brought each night have definitely been a lifesaver! Laundry being washed has been a huge blessing as well. Whew! The gifts and snacks specifically put together for each kid were just perfect.

You guys are awesome and you all have certainly lifted the weight of stress just a little bit while we navigate this newness, and all of the baggage that comes with children who are stripped of all they know. It’s traumatic to say the least. 

Seriously, we are humbled by your goodness and generosity. Thank you. Thank you for being the church.

Please keep praying for our family and these children. They all have some pretty serious “stuff” to face while being so young. They need Jesus. They need the church.

Brian and I were making sandwiches for the kids for lunch over the weekend and it was in this moment I realized how many kids I have in my home. I love them all. Every. Single. One.
