On Hope and feathers

Hope is the thing with feathers

that perches in the soul

and sings the tune without the words 

and never stops at all.

                           -Emily Dickinson

Our family is embarking on another big transition: Jacob has an opportunity to move back to his home town.  As with so many things in this chapter of our lives, it is not my story to tell.

But, after much prayer and consideration, it became clear that this was the best move for all involved. 

Our goal from the beginning has been to take the next right step, out in faith.  We are convinced that this is the next right step, too.  After all, we were only ever standing in the gap to help this young man.  

Hope has made such an enormous difference. 

We love you, Jake, and wish you well!
