Faith > Fear during a Pandemic
Right now I am sitting on my bed listening to three of our littles play with trains and blocks, sweet giggles and shouts of joy as they accomplish what they are wanting to build. My fourth (Bubby, our 7 year old) moved to a bedroom downstairs this weekend and is probably looking at a book or playing with his action figures until bedtime.

We are officially NC residents again, we are getting settled into our new home and gearing up to get started into Boogie’s second semester of first grade and Bubby’s second semester of Pre-K. It’s been a hard few months, but we are HERE.
