I have some friends who are welcoming their 4th child into the world tomorrow. WOW!! This Mommy is impressed at the thought of raising 4 kids. Some days my 2 give me all I can handle. But, as I think about them bringing another life into the world, I am so thankful. You see, these people were my supervisors when I worked at Camp Adventure in college. This couple modeled what it is to have a real, authentic relationship with Jesus and with each other. They showed hundreds of teenagers what it meant to yearn for Jesus. I have not seen them for years. I keep up with them through their blog and Facebook updates. One thing I know for certain: They are modeling that same love and grace for their kids that they modeled for me so many years ago. I am so excited for this new little life that will be joining their family. God has already blessed this little bundle with amazing parents!! I hope I model the same grace for my kids that they modeled for me. Congratulations Scott & Deanna! Thank you for being the hands and feet of Jesus in my life!

SO tearful and humbled to read this tonight, dear one. I love you....
Congratulations to your friends!
This world needs more couples who can demonstrate God's love and their love for each other in such a way! That's a great thing for teens and young adults to witness!
