On the day you make your vows, there typically aren’t many obstacles. The honeymoon is an idyllic period of relaxation, and when you arrive back home reality starts to sink in. As the days and years progress, new challenges start to surface. Navigating family dynamics were already difficult, but what happens when your parents need extra help?

It’s my hope that these words comfort and encourage you to walk with intentionality in these days and the days to come.
