Uncle Matt and Aly
Grandpa ShurtzAn angel. That's what we think Erin's stepmother, Renae, really is. She may never know what her service to us this past week has meant. After having spent 2 weeks helping her daughter with a new baby followed by a week of vacation in New York, Renae came straight here to Forest Grove to spend yet another week away from her family helping new parents in the family adjust.
Renae cooked, cleaned, babysat, laundered, washed dishes (without a dishwasher), stocked cupboards, and offered the support that only family can during a week when we needed her. Aren't grandmothers great?
There have been other angels, too. Friends and ward members who cooked meals or made a point to offer their services have been indispensable as well.
Thank goodness for friends and family.
