Thank you for your vulnerability here! I loved your thoughts on being the receiver of hospitality… definitely not a side we think of as often, but so valuable!

Thank you for the encouragement to keep going! I’m excited too - and praying sickness and snow stay away enough for it to happen 😅🙏

The pile of laundry on the couch is so real! Getting to see a glimpse into your life and hear of your heart for hospitality through this piece is very special. I have no doubt the gift of your presence over perfection to others is received and held with great joy and gratitude. So beautifully said!

Thank you Bekah, I appreciate the encouragement! And yes, presence over perfection - both externally and internally - is a great way to summarise that value
