I need your help, and if you know me, you know how difficult it is for me to ask. This week marks the start of my new work hours, as I’ve been moved to part-time due to a reduction in workload following the sale of one of our insurance companies. While this change is challenging, it has also created an opportunity for me to step in and support Kaylee and Josh as they work to find a new place to live and get everything in order to provide for Ryder’s needs.

With that being said and with help from Kaylee, Josh and Carolyn (Ryders other Grandma) Ryder will be staying here with me for a few months. This is where I could use your help. I currently have very little to care for a new baby. Thanks to a dear friend, we have some clothes, blankets, a car seat/stroller, and a few other items, but we’re still missing many essentials. If you have anything that you no longer need or use for a newborn please consider donating it to Nana Tia's "Big Lil Adventure"!

Additionally, if you'd like to help in another way, financial contributions would be a tremendous blessing right now. Even small donations can go a long way in helping me get the essentials Ryder needs and ease some of the financial burden during this transition period. Feel free to reach out to me directly. Your generosity would mean the world to us.

This journey will be both physically and financially challenging for me, but God has blessed me with an incredible group of friends and family. When He placed this on my heart and began whispering, "You can do this," I couldn’t say no. I can see now that He started preparing the way for this long before Ryder was born, and I trust completely that God will provide everything needed for Ryder and his family. I will stay steadfast in prayer, holding onto the promise that Jesus will walk with me every step of the way.
