So many of you might remember that we were on edge, ready to get to Mayo. We prayed that an opening would come up and we would get to come early- but God made us wait. After meeting these two ladies, Deb and Kayla, I understand why!

This past year, I feel like my faith has grown even in the midst of all our family has been through but I was still trying to pray harder so He would give me what I wanted when I wanted it.

Deb and Kayla were a blessing- providing answers, giving me strength to talk openly about my relationship with Christ and being the comfort of God's love.

Kayla graduated today and we are so proud of how much she and Deb have grown and healed while they were here. We will miss them dearly and we pray that God will send them to Texas to visit with us soon!

I know it may seem like I side tracked from our program today- but that is not so. Part of this program is meeting other people who have experienced the same/similar thing. The kids validate each other, the parents treasure each other's understanding without saying a word and God builds a bond that we need to last a lifetime!
