Our Family’s Journey Toward Stability My spouse and I are currently working through a temporary financial transition. We are both working and earning what we can, but it may take several months for our income to become consistent as we move toward more stable employment and business opportunities. During this time, we have fallen behind on some essential household bills. We are doing our best to keep up, but the timing of our income and expenses has made it difficult to get ahead. We are working hard to protect our utilities, maintain our household, and provide for our family. We recently learned that we are expecting a baby. We already have a four-year-old, and our current home is approximately 390 square feet. Although we are grateful to have a place to live, the limited space and certain safety concerns make it unsuitable for our growing family long-term. Our goal is not to obtain anything extravagant. We are simply trying to create a safer, more stable home for our children. We are exploring practical options, including moving our existing small home to property we can eventually own and improve, helping with the initial costs of a modest property, or renting a safer home while we develop a long-term plan. Any support will help us address urgent bills, housing and moving expenses, baby necessities, and the gap between our current income and the more stable income we are working toward. We are continuing to work, pursue better opportunities, and make responsible changes for our family. We are deeply grateful for any kind of support, including donations, shared resources, referrals, encouragement, prayers, or simply sharing this page with others. Every bit of help gives us more time and stability as we work toward a safer home and a stronger future for our family. Thank you for taking the time to learn about our situation and support us in any way you can.
Note About the Gift Card Wish List We want to clarify that the gift cards included on our wish list are provided as optional ways to help. They are not all necessities, and supporters should not feel pressured to purchase anything from the list. Some gift cards are included for anyone who would like to help with a meal, clothing or supplies for the baby, items for our four-year-old, or even an occasional fun family day without added financial worry. These are thoughtful options, but they are not essential needs. Other gift cards may be helpful for supplies we could use if we are able to move our existing home to a piece of land and make improvements over time. We have also included pet-related gift cards for anyone who specifically wants to help with the dogs and cats currently in our care while we actively work to rehome them responsibly. Assistance with pet food and necessary supplies would be especially helpful during that process. We understand that people give in different ways and for different reasons. Some may prefer to donate through the fundraiser, while others may feel more comfortable giving a meal, clothing, supplies, a gift card, or another form of support. The wish list is simply meant to offer choices and make it easier for supporters to help in the way that feels right for them. Please know that no one is expected to purchase anything, and every form of support is appreciated—including sharing our page, offering resources, encouragement, AND PRAYERS POWER OF PRAYER IS THE STRONGEST OF ALL AND MEANS THE WORLD TO OUR FAMILY!!
