Preparing a Place
Published by My Cup Of Teach
I'm an elementary educator of fourteen years, mama of two fourth graders, wife of a soul man, and author of two children's books. I love puns, walking Louisville's parks, seeing my family gobble up my meals (only a few so far...The Food Network is helping), and having folks over for good conversations about the Bible. Writing is in my DNA. My mother and grandmother best expressed themselves through the pen. I feel connected to them as I write. It is my hope to reflect the image of our creative God through creative writing, something they both did so well. View all posts by My Cup Of Teach
“In my Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you many be also.”

Hanslin and I are so excited for you two and know that you will make excellent parents! We can tell you that children are blessings from the Lord. Even though it’s sometimes not easy being parents, we sure enjoy it!
Over the past 4 1/2 months, we have learned a lot about God’s love. We love our twins so much, and it amazes us to think about how much more God loves all of us. Also, as our two babies are completely dependent on us right now, we are completely dependent on the Lord. He gives us strength each day to make it through.
You are going to love being parents just like we do. What better way to experience parenthood than with two babies at once! You know we’re a fan! 🙂
Please keep us updated.
