I feel so blessed to have so many care about our housing situation. We have wanted to go "home" for so long.As many of you know, when we started our remodeling project. Calvin and I where both working. We had 2 children at home, well...teens at the time. We moved out of the house to make the repairs as this was to be a major overhaul. We planned to stay in Charlestown for 3 months.
Then our world turned upside down, inside out and just threw us for a loop. From my sisters illness and then her death, losing a baby, hospitalizations for Calvin, 3 surgeries for me, foster parenting our great nephews , then adopting...we had to change our plans over and over. To care for our boys and their special needs, I left the work place. Then the bottom fell out of Calvin's hardwood flooring business. It has just been a wild ride. I am amazed at how we have made it through. I know the Lord has kept us. The people that have reached out to us has been truly amazing. I am in awe at the compassion others have had. From praying with us, to giving gifts to the boys, providing a car so I could visit my father in the hospital, to sharing informational resources, and a shoulder to cry on...
I thank you deeply from the bottom of my heart! The Lord has truly blessed me with the most awesome people to call "my friend".
