The Kashubas


Where to even begin. God has blessed me exceedingly and abundantly more than I could have ever asked or imagined with Amanda and Michal Kashuba. Amanda has become more than a best friend, but an amazing sister in Christ. It's one of those rare friendships I believe few get to experience. I am blessed by her in countless ways, and can honestly say have never taken advantage of the gift she is to me. Amanda, you are irreplaceable, and have been a true Godsend. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!!!

I have the great privilege of being "Aunt" Heather to their 3 precious children. These gifts from above have entered into their home and our lives in a special way. Chad, Brett, and Kaylie became official Kashubas today! It's been a much anticipated day, and one we all never will forget. I have learned so much through both Michael and Amanda, and count it a huge honor to have walked alongside them these last few years in there journey to their new family. It's been a hard, sweet road. One I believe has totally been worth the wait! I only hope one day I have the privilege of adopting my own children. There are so many of God's children that need love, and so many of us able to provide that love.

Lord, that we would remember to pray for and love on your precious children...regardless of circumstance, age, race, or gender. Let us see them through your eyes. And Lord, thank you for the Kashuba family. Thank you for Chaddy, Bretty, and KK. I love them more than I can say, and hold them each close to my heart!
