Am I ready?

That’s a great question. It depends on if you are asking physically or mentally. Physically NO, I can’t believe how quickly time seems to be flying and crazy things just seem to be popping up including 2 unexpected trips: to snow covered Philadelphia and NJ and now snow blanketed Minneapolis all within the span of 3 weeks. That’s OK, I can be impulsive, but it feels like there is still so much to be done here. So much more money and awareness to raise.

Now onto mentally, I think I have been ready all my life for something like this. I haven’t grown up involved in church or missions or charity, but my head and heart have always been there. Maybe you hit 40 and say, “It’s Time”. It seems that has happened to me. Within the past year my brain has clicked from, “This is what you should do” to “This is what I’M going to do”.

Ask me what I do best in the world and my answer is being a mother and loving on my girls. Now I have the chance to spread that love and love on children who just may not have that unconditional love in their world, and I just can’t wait. Put me to work, give me a hammer, I don’t care just give me a child to love on. I am planning on coming back changed and I AM READY!
