About Malachi's personality

Malachi is the perfect mix of silly, sweet, and caring. Making people laugh is his greatest joy — he says the funniest things, and we even keep a running list! He loves food and is Mama’s best taste tester. But his big heart shines just as bright as his jokes. He has two older brothers and a baby sister, and any time they’re upset, he’s right there with a gentle back rub or a song. Malachi fills every day with laughter and love.

What are Malachi's favorite activities?

Malachi loves doing whatever his brothers do, whether it’s building trucks with Legos or ‘reading’ books. He’s happiest tagging along with Daddy to watch the big excavators and dump trucks at work. Sunday school at church is a favorite too, along with singing loudly to the radio with the windows down — as long as he’s the one rolling it down! He brings so much joy and laughter to the seemingly mundane.

How would $25,000 impact your family?

$25,000 would mean so much to our family because I recently left my job to be home and pour into our kids every day. I spent too many years away and now I’m so thankful to help guide their learning and watch them grow. Staying home has been a huge blessing, but it comes with big sacrifices too. We’ve had to slow down saving for their education. We’re giving up a lot now to build strong roots, but we want to protect their future too.
