Thank you!

​ I’m officially an old lady. I sat in my cozy chair reading the paper (for the first time…ever) with my chai tea and the headline actually pertained to me. 

Social security benefits will rise 2.8% in 2026. Thankfully, me and the 3 kids under 18 get to collect your SS monthly. Currently the amount is just a tad short for our budget. This increase will be perfect! I am so grateful for you Babe!  

I remember having a conversation with you on our 3 or 4th date. (Me 16 you 18 years old) The date where we sat at the city park talking for hours late into the night. One of the things you shared with me was you were scared you wouldn’t provide well for your family someday. (Because of your lack of college prospects) This sounded absurd to me because you looked drenched in potential and I could see Gods hand in your life. I never doubted you. You continued to find success and opportunities. Look at you Oberlin and Columbia Grad! 🎓

Because of YOU our lifestyle won’t change. Our needs are met. Home is where YOUR heart is. Thank you! 😘 💞 💋
