The Hoffmann Blah!

Hello Hoffmann Gals,

Just wanted to write a letter to encourage you young moms. You are doing a wonderful and very important job. I know because I have watched you. Your kids look so loved and well cared for. I hope you can enjoy these precious days. Because like A.Barb said they do pass quickly. I also want to encourage you too Barb. This is a time to mourn and to readjust. I couldn't imagine life without kids at home. But there is life and it is very good. As young moms you invest all your time, love, and energy into your children. Now is the time to sit back and watch your kids use all the things you have taught them. You didn't raise them to stay with you forever. You should be very proud of them. They are great Christian kids who want to go where God leads them. Isn't it great to know they don't go away alone. God will go with them. The only one who loves them even more than you do.

U. Denny and I just got back from our week in the state of Washington. It was beautiful, the weather was like your most perfect spring day. We hiked in the mountains, ate and slept when we wanted. Yes God continues to be good whatever our stage of life.

I will lift you up in prayer. Love you gals tons,

A. Bonnie
