I thank the Lord for keeping her safe during quarantine and giving her the patience to stay in the hotel so long. I love her voice and accent ☺️ the impersonation at the end of video was hilarious 😂 you’re too funny Lily and Luke playing along was too adorable for words! God bless you all and tell your Mom hi from California ☀️ 🏖 May God’s protection pour over you and your family and I pray your mom enjoys her time there with you all. Many blessings!!

    I admire your Mommy so much! She's so determined 😀 I have 17 grandchildren. There are several I have not met yet :😞 I have adult onset muscular dystrophy plus some other pretty advanced medical problems so I am mostly home bound last 3 years or so. It used to break my heart daily but God changed my perspective and now, I am just happy they are all alive and doing well. I do have 1 daughter and her 12 year old son who are showing strong signs of MD too 😞 we are all going to be DNA tested in the next few months to find out what kind. Please 🙏 they don't have this awful disorder too. OK, enough about all that! Just thought I'd say all that to say this; you're videos make my heart soar! I love love love seeing good things happen for good people! You're oldest Luke reminds me so much of my grandson, Kenyan Amari! Kenny is autistic, very brilliant and highly social. He also reminds me of my Son and his little boy at the same age ! My children & I are multi racial and the dark hair, beautiful brown eyes just make me smile so much! Thank you for sharing your life with us all Lilly! You have definitely made so many people feel joy again. Love from near Cambridge 💕 Ohio( home of astronaut John Glenn!)
