My Heart Hurts
Over the weekend, my family and I experienced something that I want to share with you. But, the problem is, I don't quite know how to express it all just yet. I'm still processing. Oh, how I process. It's a curse, you know.We went to a local "soup kitchen" to volunteer and help pass out food.

Some I am still learning...but they are all good. All is grace. Every moment with you. You have taught me that I really didn't know much about love before you came along. You have shown me just how selfish I really am; and helped me to smooth out some of those rough edges. Though there are still so many ... Read More about Happy Birthday, Hannah!
