    It really struck me when she talked about how as parents we feel so paralyzed in making decisions. We want to get it right and question our own judgment. It was so freeing to hear her say that we already have the answer. I know I struggle with that. I want to get it right. It is tough out there. But praise God, in Him, we’ve got this!
