🙌 They Couldn't Use Their Hands For This


They all shouted “yes” when they were asked a simple question:

"Does Sister B. do a lot for you?"

There were even a few girls who started sharing stories of this sweet woman who has touch their lives.

So when they were asked to write a thank you note for her in class, it was a no-brainer activity.

Until they were told they can’t use their hands.

“What do you mean we can’t use our hands!? How are we supposed to write the letter?”

A few shouted out clever ideas and the rules were repeated again.

Everyone needs to write this specific woman a thank you note without using their hands for their letter.

They were so clever trying to write using their mouths, their feet, and one girl even tried using her elbows.

When everyone was done writing we talked about their experience.

“How were your letters? Did you write everything on your heart?”

Their answers were priceless:

“Mine looks like a ransom note.”

“I can’t even read mine.”

“That sucked.”

And then the big question:

“Did anyone think to ask someone to help them write their letter?”

There were no rules in helping another girl.

Then the next question: “How was writing a letter without hands like doing life without Jesus?”

The girls shared about times when they tried to do life on their own.

Some even shared they were afraid to do life without him.

He gives us grace to do those things we can’t do ourselves.

A second chance or a fifth.

Understanding and patience when you’re learning to love someone.

Seeing those around you with limitless potential and with an eternal destiny.

Because when we allow him to be our hands, our most inferior thank you note becomes the most treasured gift given to another.

Happy Monday, Reader! Last year, we were sitting on the front porch, the kids holding their little sparklers and waiting (not-so-patiently) for the neighbor's fireworks to start. When the first sparkler lit up, my youngest whispered, “It's like Jesus' light.” It caught me off guard. Because in that moment—surrounded by the noise, the humidity, the chaos—I saw what he saw. Awe. Wonder. Light in the darkness. And I thought, our freedom really is a gift from above. That night reminded me how...

Last week, I found myself scrambling to organize a last-minute family event. Between juggling schedules, meal planning, and keeping the kids entertained, I was feeling overwhelmed. Then I remembered something small but powerful—a printable planner I had saved from my favorite shop. That little sheet helped me map out the day in minutes. Suddenly, everything felt more manageable. The kids were happy with a fun activity sheet, and I could breathe knowing I had a clear plan in front of me. This...

Happy Monday, Reader! Every 4th of July, after the hot dogs are eaten and the sparklers have fizzled out, my crew knows exactly what’s coming next… Pajamas. Blue Bell ice cream. And a patriotic movie. It started one summer when my youngest was scared of the fireworks. Instead of going to the big show, we pulled out a blanket, snuggled on the couch, and I told them the story of when aliens attacked America on the 4th of July. (Yes, it was Independence Day movie with Will Smith, but they were...
