Forgiven Felons

SUNDAY

Breakfast was incredible this morning.

Such a great time of praise reports, discussion, fellowship, and breaking bread.

We got to encourage some mamas who have sons in prison.

Miguel, our new resident, got to share his story.

And we all enjoyed the new furniture.

I love doing life with these people.

We have a great tribe.

We stopped and honored the men and women who lost their lives during this current war we are in.

FAMILY CONVERSATION

At my moms and my girls are breaking out into song with every sentence anyone says.

It’s pretty cool.

Then Jessa says, “Daddy, give me a sentence”

I said, “30 years”

Jessamy says, “that’s not a sentence”

I waited.

Jessamy rolls eyes.

Jessa screamed when she got it.
