“Funding Love gave us something that we could never have managed on our own, but it was something we desperately needed as a family; the chance to get away from our ridiculous schedule and just connect as a family. I’ve seen a difference in my kids since we’ve been home that I never expected. I see my 15 year old playing basketball in my driveway with my six year old. I see my 11 putting away her phone and curling up on the couch with my 4 year old. They’ve always loved each other, but I think that they needed a reminder that it’s worth putting down the school work and the activities and the business to just be together.”
