This little house is our family's home.
Hello to a heart full of gratitude and so much thanks
for all of your support last week.I felt the loveand gained from the perspectivesand stories shared.My soul was soothedand given hope.

Hello to gratitude for perspective.
There was a horrific car accident this weekjust blocks from our house.Unfortunatelyit was a car full of teenage girlswho had made some very unfortunate choicesand now have to live with unbelievably harsh outcomes.My heart breaks and bleedsfor these girlsand their families.I send them all much much love and prayer.
Life is so very fragileIt is up to us to make the very most of everyday given.and to
love fiercely and steadfastly.
 On a much, much, lighter note
