For finding out that 3 girls were rescued from the sex trafficking trade during the Super Bowl. One church printed up booklets of missing girls from around the country. Then they handed them out in hotels and ask maids and other staff if they had seen any of the girls. Working with police they rescued 3 girls that maids identified. 2 of them had been missing from their families 4 years and 1 had been missing for 5 years! YEARS in the trade and now reunited with their families.
God Bless that church for their efforts – I am thankful for those people that I have never met.
For the wonderful women in my MOM’s group and our amazing mentor moms.
For Mike building the girls the MOST AMAZING playset ever.
For the endless hours of outside fun and adventure the girls are going to have together out there.
For Nadia reading us “Green Eggs and Ham” this week. She was so proud.
