Who do you love?

I've written so much these past few months about blessings. Casey, Blake and I are so truly blessed. Our families and friends are so supportive, encouraging and loving. Even when we do something or make some kind of decision that seems crazy, they're all there waiting to load the moving truck, beat us to our destination with ready hands to help us unpack, make mini trips on the weekend to play with our super animated 4-year old so we can get in some extra hours in at the studio, or even be willing to watch him once-a-week so we can be part of a life-transforming, year-long program.

I'm so lucky to have people in my life that are so easy to love. It's amazing to me that there are so many people in my life that inspire me to love more or better just by being themselves, and then there are so many of these same people who I love that are just unquestionably inspiring. And, really, how lucky am I to have my very own sister who is all of these things?

Danielle you are simply inspiring. . .

We caught each other on skype the other night. It was so good to see her beautiful, shining face and to hear the unmatched adventures of her weekend in the country she and Dave are now calling home – so far away, but every time we connect, other than the fact that they undoubtedly would have been on their way over to join us for our chocolate fondue were they still only a few miles away, it was as if they were talking to us from next door.

She told me her story and I was amazed. Amazed at how she has completely embraced all that life is offering and sometimes throwing at her in new home of Ecuador. . .

Click HERE to read her truly amazing story from this past weekend and maybe you and I, together, will be crying those crazy, happy tears that come when you feel yourself cheering someone on to do something where the person's faith and God's faithfulness have to collide to make it happen.

I love you, Danielle.
