Dear Judy & Mathew’s temporary family

            Thank You!  Thank You!  Thank You!  You do not know how much I appreciate your willingness to work with my son and all the other kids at Spring Creek.  I realize that without you I could not have taken the time to fix all the emotions and issues inside of me that allowed me to check out of our family for so long.  Without you I could not have fully understood that I enabled Matthew’s sense of entitlement because it made me feel good to provide for him.  What I didn’t see is that I was teaching him that life was all about receiving.  What I hope and pray is that by the time he returns to me, you will have shown him how your service is returning wonderful thing to you because you get to see a restored soul.  Knowing that you have equipped my child and others with the tools to be true leaders, caring compassionate people able to give and receive.  Thank you for caring enough to be there for my son and others when I could not.

                        Forever in your debt
