Meredith is a one-of-a-kind, gem of a girl. She's one of 'our' girls from our small town near Dallas. She's a youth from our church, was in our FCA huddle, babysat our kids, and was just in general was a big part of our small town life. In June she called and told us that she wanted to come visit us. We were thrilled, because all five of us love Meredith.
We had the best time with Meredith. She stayed with us for 5 days and just hung out with us. We went to parks, went swimming, went to church, ate out, cooked yummy meals and had some great quality time together. She even gave Keri and me a date night!
We loved showing Meredith around our new town.
Meredith played legos with Doak everyday. He could play legos 24/7 and she played for hours each day with him.
so silly!
so fun!
One thing about our coaching/teaching life is that we get a chance to meet and know some amazing teenagers. We are blessed to still keep in contact with many of them through facebook, texting, and visits.
Meredith has been a great role model to our kids and she's taught Keri and me about faith, being true to who God wants you to be, and how to chase big dreams. Meredith is starting college this fall and we are expectantly watching to see how God uses her!
We love you Meredith!
