A Letter to Healthcare Workers

To all the healthcare workers who may read this:
     The purpose of this letter is to say thank you. You are doing incredible work and we could not imagine how hard life must be for you right now.
     We know you are normally the ones reminding us of this, but everyone forgets - please wash your hands. Please don't get caught up in helping others and forget to take care of yourself. We can't afford to lose you.
     We know that the work you do is not easy. We can't even begin to imagine how tired you are when you come home at the end of the day. Know that we appreciate you SO much. We know that our lives will be safe in your hands, and we are so thankful that we have you here to protect us.
     Whether you are on the front lines, or (seemingly) behind the scenes, you are truly saving the world right now. Our prayers and best wishes are with you as you combat this virus. God bless you and your families for all the amazing work you are doing - there are so many people who wouldn't be here if it weren't for you.

Lily's Testimony: Finding Joy in Grief

Hello everyone! So, with the COVID-19 pandemic calming down for now, some of us bloggers decided to share a little bit about our lives and how they were affected during these crazy and unexpected times. But, more importantly, we wanted to share about how God has changed us during this time, because this is HIS plan, not ours. He is in control! Therefore, without further ado, I will share about my life, and hope that you can see God behind it all. I am not the center of this story. God is!  This is me with a sweet little one that we welcomed into our home at the end of February 2020. His name is K (well, not really, but for privacy reasons his real name will not be included). K was our second foster care placement. He was 8 months old when he came into our home because of physical abuse. Sadly, we were not even the first home he was removed to; he had lived with two other temporary placements before he came to live with us.  In case you aren’t familiar with foster care, our family w

Advice for People Like Me

Hello! I am going to apologize for the pretty much nonexistent posts of late, I will personally try to make sure that I post more often, but I make no promises for my life tends to be busy and overwhelming as you will see in this post. A QUICK DISCLAMER- this post is not intended to be a pity party for me. I just wanted to share my feelings in a way that may help others so please understand that and don’t think I’m doing this for attention. -Kessa            I wanted to make this post because I feel that I cannot be the only one who is feeling this way. I am a planner, organizer, cleaner, leader, extrovert, etc. Mess stresses me out, disorganization stresses me out, spontaneousness is not my thing, and I always have to be busy. In case you can’t tell already, I get stressed out really easily. My planning, organizing, cleaning, extroverted, leading nature can be good, but it is often very bad. I tend to forget to go to God with all my troubles, I am stubborn which makes me think I s

Frequently Asked Questions About Foster Care

Image
  Hello! We’ve been wanting to do a post on frequently asked foster care questions for a while. We’ve both noticed that people often don’t know much about the system, and we want to help change that!   After asking around, 10 people had various questions that we did our best to answer. If you’re one of these people, thank you so much for asking them! They’re all really good questions, and some of them were hard to answer. We’re so sorry if they aren’t answered exactly the way you were picturing. With this topic, it’s often hard to answer straight-forwardly. If anyone has more questions for us, we’d be happy to answer them in a future post! Just leave them in the comments. We’d love to hear them! Thanks for reading!  Lily: Hello everyone! We’re so excited that we get to answer all of these amazing questions! Here’s a bit of background about my foster care experience before we begin. I told a lot about this in my Finding Joy in Grief testimony, which is a separate post that you can find
