Life Changers:
I want to thank you all for loving my children. The way you received my family is something we will always remember.
On the way home there was a silence in the car that was deafening amongst Jordan and Ava. I was in the front driving through the tears that was flowing from my eyes. The tears were those that you always want a reason to have but you never want to experience.
Let me explain...
There are a few things in your life that you really long for, one of them being that your children are loved and are safe. When you place them out in the "world" you only pray and hope that they are surrounded by others that love and care for them with the same mindset that you have. When this occurs, you are overjoyed. This was the reason for the tears driving home today.
You guys at Coder loved our family beyond anything we have experienced. We are very grateful for the way you opened up your lives to our family. Words cannot express the gratitude we have. Please know that what you do makes a difference each day. Please know that the long hours do make an impact. The patience, joy, and love does not go without notice!
When I headed to Coder today to pick up the kids for the last time, I had no idea the emotion that I would feel. The deep feeling originates only from those that open their lives to you and receive yours for what it is.
We love each of you and will miss you dearly.
John, Christi, Terah, Ava, and Jordan
