Meet our December Feature: The Prins Family

There’s a certain kind of hum that fills the home of Mitch and Brooke Prins this time of year. It’s not just the sound of wrapping paper crinkling or a Christmas playlist on repeat. It’s laughter. It’s life. It’s the presence of seven little voices, some forever, some for now, each a part of a story bigger than anyone could have imagined.

For the past six and a half years, the couple has opened their hearts and home as foster parents. It’s a home for the holidays. A home for healing. A home built on faith. And for every child who enters its doors, home is exactly what it will be.

If you know of family to feature as we head into 2026, send them our way!

Together, the Aguilar family has found their place in Hudsonville, a community that Mike describes as the perfect mix of small-town warmth and big-hearted connection. Mike and his family believe in building connections, spreading kindness, and reminding people of the good that surrounds them.
