We Rented Our House

About two weeks ago, we took our house off the market so that we could rent it. Our tenants moved in this weekend. They are a friendly family with three kids so we expect that they will fit right in with the rest of the neighborhood.

This past week was jam-packed with moving out of our house and preparing it for the renters to move in. Stephanie and I packed up our remaining belongings, touched up scuff marks on the walls, and shampooed the carpets. We are exhausted.

This week we will have a lot more breathing room. Having the house situated is a big relief. Now we can focus more on the upcoming adventure.

Our Pledge

We hereby pledge:

- To spend intimate, quantity time with our family.
- To actively help the poor, the sick, the lonely, and the helpless.
- To value, protect, and advocate for children.
- To de-emphasize the importance of “stuff” in our lives.
- To bring publicity to good causes and good people.
- To live with intentionality, as if this year was our very last.
- To observe the needs in our country/community – and then do something about them.
- To give – every day.
