Move-In Day Milestone! August 23, 2025
Saturday was such a proud moment for our family. My little girl, Zara Gracie, officially moved in. I am beyond proud of her, and she is ready to soar into this next adventure.
I continue to place you in God’s hands, Zara. May His favor and compassion surround you always.
I am forever grateful for my village, far and near.
Zara is all settled in, and my heart is so full. She is truly perfection.
