Beautifully Full

I have come home from Monday Drop-ins the past few weeks surging, well into the night, with adrenalin energy. Drop-ins have been beautifully full. There is so much life and energy teeming through the space.
I desire to have a meaningful connection with each mom and child that enters the drop-in, however this is a challenge and not always possible. Some families drop-in for a few moments while others stay the full three hours. Some families we've never met before and some are regulars. In the midst of trying to connect with each mom and child we are also answering knocks on the door, handing out diapers and wipes, ensuring children aren't running out of the gated play area, serving coffee and tea, and answering texts from moms. I love the beauty of the community that is created in this space.
