Kristen opens up and shares about the past two years since adopting her boys from Ukraine.  She shares the practical things she does on a daily basis to disciple her boys in the Word and show them the love of Christ every single day.

Motherhood has its hard moments and having a deep relationship with Christ is the key to loving well during those moments.
