It takes a tribe...

It takes a tribe to raise children! This has been a crazy week, and I owe a HUGE thank you to a list of people who support the raising of my kids... BUT this week in particular we have juggled and juggled kiddos. I am very thankful that kids are designed to be resilient! Thank you Shannon for providing a loving and fun environment for my kids this week! You are so flexible, laid back, and positive! I have appreciated your help. Thank you to Nicole for all you have done this whole school year... but more specifically that you have been flexible with your schedule this week to accommodate the changes! Thank you to Brenda for making Hannah's last preschool day special! Thank you to Lisa for always partnering in the running of both our kids... I don't know what I would have done this year without you! Thank you to Scott and Sue for all that you are to our kids, and for the extra support you have given through ALL of my educational process! Thank you to BJ and Crystal... you guys have been so amazing to give us breaks here and there this past year... your friendship is very important in my life. I appreciate all that you give to my children! The list goes on and on.... Malinda, Judy, Kirby & Amy, our church family, Karate Instructors, classroom teachers, teenage babysitters, Tennis Coach, Grandparents, Aunts & Uncles. It TRULY takes a tribe to raise children. We couldn't do all that we do without YOU! Thanks for helping us get through this school year!

You and your family are a part of our hearts... always will be.
