Road Trip

Marge, you won't believe this !!!!!
In case you have not heard on facebook, Scott and I are going to welcome a 15 year old young man into your home! This guy has been introduced to us via TJ and his "professional" meeting with Todd. Todd's family is not available to take care of him and this young man needs some structure, guidance, and love. This young man needs a place to lay his head, and some meat on his bones. And I can take care of all these needs.....plus add a helping of love, care and acceptance. So as of right now, I am packing my bags, heading to Texas, picking him, taking him to visit his mother that is three hours away from him and then bringing him home to start a new life at least for a while. We are so excited to have this young man. TJ thinks the kid has soo much potential and we are at this time happy to offer him the chance. Will fill you in more later, but just wanted people to know we are so looking forward to having a new guest in our home!

Oh, what a lucky young man! This is a wonderful idea, Lisa! You and Scott will be wonderful at this endeavor. Oh, I can't wait to hear all about this. Promise me when you get back from your trip that you will tell me all about it. God works in mysterious ways His wonders to perform!

Be safe on your road trip and I'll be praying for you and your guest. God bless you, my friend.

Love ya!
Marge
