Look who is TWELVE!

Happy Birthday, Truman!

Everytime I spend time with you, I think, "I wish I would have known him from the start!"

You approach life with an abundance of energy and excitement.

You are authentically YOU without reservations or hesitation. You show up as your magnificent self and make connections quickly, smile often, laugh easily, and amaze us with how quickly your mind works. You are ten steps ahead of all of us!

You are fast! When you decide to explore or move to another space, your speed increases and helps me to realize I can move faster than I thought too!

You have the best taste in music and your preferences are often ones I grew up listening to in the 90s. Because of you, I'm listening to Dido, Mr. Big, and Len again! You have also introduced me to music I've never heard! "Lookout Kid" by Arcade Fire has become one of my favorites - thanks to you!

Your growth has been substantial. After spending 45 minutes with you every week for years, I get to go to your mom and say, "Guess what he did today!" and "When did he start (fill in the blank)?!"

Your love for your mom is absolutely beautiful and profound. She loves you so deeply and you love her right back with the same depth and magnitude.

You have changed the trajectory of my career in the absolute best way. I imagine anyone who knows you would say, "Truman has changed the trajectory of my life too."

Happy Birthday, Truman!

I'm incredibly grateful to know you!

Congratulations, Allen!

You are a high school graduate!

Today, I had the honor of attending Allen’s graduation party.

What an honor to celebrate such a meaningful milestone with Allen, his parents, his sisters, and other instrumental people in their lives.

Allen started at Bringing Therapy Home when he was in 4th grade. To think that we have had the privilege of watching his growth through 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th grade feels extraordinary. How did we become so fortunate to get this kind of time with one of the most amazing humans?!

Allen is the person who will sit with you, engage in conversation, answer your questions, look through your pictures, and genuinely listen as you share stories. He makes people feel valued and connected because of the kind of listener he is.

He will share every fact he knows about the Kansas City Chiefs and share insight from the games. He is their number one fan!

He is also one of the hardest-working individuals I know. Allen’s growth did not happen by chance. It reflects the determination, persistence, and effort he has put in day after day, year after year. He keeps trying, keeps learning, and keeps showing up. And it shows!

Because Allen is a triplet, it was also beautiful to see him celebrating with his sisters. In the fall, his sisters will head off to college in different states while Allen continues his journey here at home.

Every path is unique and every milestone deserves to be celebrated. His parents have taught us that.

We are simply so proud of you, Allen!

You are AMAZING!

Congratulations!

Sometimes we get people that come into our lives and they have a profound impact on us almost immediately.

They share their joy, compassion, and knowledge.

They model interactions with others.

They laugh easily.

They meet kids where they are.

They have boundless energy.

It often feels like we have known them a lifetime.

That has been Morgan Jennings from the start.

When I first met Morgan 3 years ago, I thought, "I really hope she accepts the position so I can learn from her!"

She did accept the position and, wow - her impact at BTH (and beyond) has been substantial!

Today is her last day at BTH because she is moving to Texas.

What a paradox of emotions to wish she could stay with us but to also want her to expand her influence in this world.

Morgan, thank you for the love and knowledge you shared with us!

It's going to be hard not seeing you walk through the doors and to not watch you playing with kids on the floor.

We are thrilled for this opportunity for you, your husband, and your growing family.

You are an extraordinary one.

I can't wait to see all that is ahead for you and Mike!

Maybe you are like me and the month of May has been WILD.

Maybe your evenings are full of "end of the year" activities and your days are filled with reminders on everything you still have to do.

Maybe you are like me and wonder what you are forgetting and how it will all get done.

But, maybe you are like me, and you get reminders on what matters because of people like Millie.

Here is what matters:

Being with the people you love and admire.

People that remind you to laugh and be silly.

People that dance and sing.

People that give you a chance to remember you are exactly where you need to be.

The finish line is in sight! Summer is almost here!

You've got this!

Congratulations, Zoe!

Today we had the honor of celebrating Zoe at her high school graduation party.

What a milestone it is to witness!

Zoe joined BTH in June of 2023 as a group assistant for our summer groups. Over the course of three summers, showing up week after week, Zoe became an asset to our team.

Watching Zoe in action is EXTRAORDINARY!

She meets people exactly where they are. She remains calm in the moments that call for it most. She listens - truly, actively listens. And she does all of it with a smile, a laugh, and an abundance of energy.

Zoe values people. She celebrates them. And in doing so, she creates a space where people feel safe, seen, and can be exactly who they are!

She is the one that will celebrate you, cheer you on, and be the one that is genuinely thrilled for you.

Zoe, watching you reach this milestone is extraordinary. You have given so much to the children and families of BTH and I cannot wait to see everything that comes next for you.

You deserve the world!

You are going to do extraordinary things in this lifetime because you are EXTRAORDINARY!

Congratulations, Emma!

I had the honor of attending Emma's graduation party today and knew it would be an emotional experience.

I first met Emma when she was just six years old.

It was May 2014.

At the time, BTH didn't have a center-based location. We went into the child's home.

I was there to work with James, an absolutely delightful three-year old.

And right there beside us - every single time - was Emma.

Six-years old.

Attentive.

Kind.

Funny.

Incredibly engaging.

Naturally facilitating and modeling language.

Time after time, she showed up for her brother in the most beautiful way.

I knew then that this girl was destined for greatness.

Emma is exactly what the world needs. Strong. Brave. Determined. An advocate. Hilarious. Gracious. A hard worker. Truly, extraordinary in every capacity.

I can't wait to see your continued impact in this world!

You are AMAZING!

Happy Birthday, Kim!

Your ability to connect with children and families is absolutely inspiring.

You don’t hesitate to go above and beyond for others and you make a constant effort to make life easier for those in your life.

You are the one that will visit a BTH family if they have been home with an unexpected event!

Just a couple of weeks ago, I called you at 6:45 am because the banner I purchased wasn't going to be ready for a going away party. I asked if I could send everything to you and if you could get it printed. You went above and beyond in making it happen! 12 hours later, you walked in with the banner! That's you - you find ways to serve and make life easier for others.

You embody compassion and strength and your dedication is apparent in every interaction.

You honor each child’s unique path, following their lead, celebrating who they are, and showing up with love and understanding. What a gift to be met exactly where we are.

Thank you, Kim, for being a light in the lives of so many.

The impact you are making in the world is profound.

Happy Birthday, Kim! You are amazing!

Congratulations, Emilyjane!

Today, Emilyjane Eichman graduated with her Master of Arts in Christian Ministry (United Methodist Studies). And she graduated with honors!

Years ago, Emilyjane made the courageous decision to go back to school to pursue her calling to become a Deacon in the United Methodist Church.

Today, I watched years of dedication and perseverance come to life in a beautiful, meaningful moment as she stood on the stage and accepted her degree.

Emilyjane has dedicated a wild and unbelievable number of hours in accomplishing this goal. She did this while raising two delightful children, supporting her husband in his own career, supporting the youth at her church, and providing music therapy at BTH.

She did it!

We are so incredibly proud of you, Emilyjane!

Your calling in ministry, your faith in God, and the light you bring to a space makes you truly extraordinary.

And now you are a Deacon for the United Methodist Church!

Congratulations!

Happy Mother's Day!

BTH moms are unlike any other.

They are the world changers.

They love deeply, have endless passion, demonstrate kindness and courage - even in the most trying times, and, when they fall, they always rise.

They are vulnerable and brave.

They persevere.

BTH moms make decisions daily that advance others and make the world a better, more loving, inclusive space for all of us.

I am surrounded by these women. Women I see on a weekly basis. Women I have grown to admire, respect, and learn from.

My wish for the BTH moms on Mother's Day: I hope you feel the absolute depth of love your children have for you. I hope you feel seen, valued, and appreciated for the ways you show up for others. I hope you feel the awe we all feel when we see you.

You are amazing and the reason it all happens!

Happy Mother's Day!
