Before EVERY meal (no matter where we are)... this is Carter's prayer:
Dear Jesus, Please help all the guys come... Steven, Jeff and Fred. Amen. And please bless the food.
This afternoon they were finally home. It is one of the hard parts about living here. I wish they could come home too... but I'm also so excited that ALL three of them stuck it out for their first years of college and finished. What a HUGE accomplishment! They've all dealt with such hard stuff this year... but they didn't quit. We are so proud! We see, talk, and text with them pretty often... but it's been a long time since we've all been together at the same time. Today was Jeff's 19th birthday... so it was super fun to have everyone home together for a few hours. I forgot how LOUD they are. :)
I LOVE this picture!!
Singing...
I thought it was fun that you can see the painting of Fred, Jeff and Steven hanging above them..

This mama's eyes are brimming with tears. Thanks for reminding us what family is.
You have given them the gift of family in a way they had never experienced. What a blessing you all are in their lives.
