Libby Schaibly hasn't added a story.
And so...THIS happened: One of those freaky Southern storms hit Southaven Mississippi and deposited half of a tree onto and into our Son and Daughter-in-law's home and onto Jennie's Dad's truck. He had loaned the truck to D. Jay since they have only one car.
It's hard to be parents, not only when the kids are small and dependent, but also when they're all grown up with babies of their own. When we became parents, we signed on for the lifetime plan. Our son D. Jay is a wonderful man, husband and father. He never got into trouble. He's never hurt anyone. He works hard and he loves God and his family.
That said, last May, he lost a well paying job as a facilities maintenance manager. He has sent resumes far and wide trying to find a job to adequately support his family. He and his wife Jennie have three beautiful girls and Jennie is a professional photographer. She's had to limit her work due to the demands of being a stay-at-home Mom. Chloe is 8, Liana is 3 and Kaylee is 1 1/2.
Yes, D. Jay is working, but they have been barely making ends meet due to the generosity of family. We have helped as much as we comfortably can. Her family has helped also. We are not heroes, just parents and grandparents who love them! When our son hurts, we hurt.
Yes, they have insurance, but a very high deductible and no means to make even temporary repairs until the real repairs begin.
There are so many other trials and tribulations they have had to deal with that we won't list.
We are fortunate, all of us, to have friends who we have helped and who have helped us. Please try to help us help our littlest angels.
