During this past week, it’s been one thing after another. I’m thankful for a team of amazing individuals who have helped ease the stress off the list that kept getting longer. You all know who you are, and Discovery Village would be NOTHING without you. I’m looking forward to a great year; just make it through another couple weeks. Praying for you all! We can DO this! It’s “Make it work” time!
