You’ll understand why I cried last night… 👇

About six months ago, when Stacey called and asked our family to be part of the Team Lexi dinner, we had no idea what we were stepping into.

When we walked through the doors last night and saw over 220 people, emotion overwhelmed me.

I felt undeserving.

In the beginning of this journey, my heart often cried out, Why me? Why me with two kids with disabilities? Why me with cancer? Why me…

But now, I ask Why me? in a whole different light.

Why did I get to have this calling in life? Why do I get to raise these incredible kids? Why did I get to be the “royal family” at the Princess Lexi dinner?

I don’t have all the answers, but I do see God using our suffering to bring Him glory—and that’s exactly what His Word promises.

So, although there are still days I wonder Why me?, tonight I cried those same words in a new light. This time, I felt honored.

Thank you, Team Lexi, for supporting our family and loving our kids. We had an absolute blast, and it’s a night we will never forget.

Cheers to Queen Hazel and King Russell!

Seeing those words on the slideshow brought me to tears. I know when we meet Jesus, they will truly be a King and Queen.
