God Made Us Family

I am simply amazed at all God has been bringing into our lives lately.  Life is so much struggle, but its also so much life, and hope, and good.  Sometimes the greatest things truly happen when you least expect them.

The Hill family has become such an important part of our lives this past year.  It all started with a guys night and from that moment as Anne of Green Gables would say, were were "kindred spirits." After a year of doing life, making memories, playing games, and fighting cancer, we find ourselves having become a family. Life is SO much better when its shared.


Last month, Ashley and Taylor took us all out for breakfast and asked if we would be Daniel's Godparents. I didn't grow up with Godparents, but I had so many incredible adults that invested in m life.  After learning the importance of these figures for this family, both Bob and I were moved and completely humbled.  We have been invited to truly become a part of this family.  To walk beside this couple as they raise their kids and to be an integral part of Daniel's life.  

What a blessing and honor.

Now we have become part of this amazing, beautiful family filled with Ashley, Taylor, Sharyl, Nora's Godparents, Merriam and Scott, and their 4 kids.  




God has multiplied our family and now we have more kids in our lives than we ever thought we would.  AND WE LOVE IT!



Being chosen as Daniel's godparents is not only a tremendous blessing for us, but also for our girls.  They are now part of this extended family with more siblings than they ever thought they would have  and the most amazing adults to help them navigate growing up.


Daniel, we are honored to be a part of your life, and we look forward to watching you grow into the man God wants you to be.  As Joshua was told, "Be Bold and very Courageous," you were made to do immeasurably more than you ever thought possible. We, your family, are always on your team.
