Heartbroken to hear this news...
Sobbing over @rachelheldevans’ death. My heart is broken for Dan and the children and for all of you who loved her so so much. I will spend the time I’ve been daily praying for her praying for all of you.

Just took our children to see the Blue Angels practice in Pensacola. My brother & sister-in-law arranged for us to meet them and get our pictures taken. Such a special day. We grew up watching them. We ❤️ our military!
