Inspiring Quotes from Tricia:
“Kids can be incredibly compassionate, but it needs to be modeled for them.”
“As a homeschool mom, we had always had our Bible curriculum and that was just something we did every day. But going through a hard situation like this makes me really intentionally dig in and intentionally disciple my kids. I can’t coast anymore in those seasons.”
