A day without shoes...
Today, thousands of people went to work...without shoes. TOMS shoes at http://www.toms.com/ hosted "A Day Without Shoes" in order to raise awareness for the MILLIONS of children that are forced to travel by barefoot, suffering injuries, getting infections..all because they do not have a pair of shoes. I wasn't sure how people at my workplace would react...I think some of them thought I was crazy....and I am. Many of them asked...and I SHARED a simple message. If you missed it this year, you can still get on their website and purchase a pair of shoes. For every pair purchased, they donate a pair of shoes to people in developing nations! I LOVE this cause!!
Our little Grayson Faye has a birthday coming up, I already looked at their website & will order her a pair for her birthday. Can't wait, great idea. Thanks,we love your big heart!!!
"Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and fautless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world."
I am the daughter of the King most High, married to my highschool sweetheart, and have four amazing and beautiful kiddos. 2 bio sons, one daughter from Ethiopia in June 2009, and one adopted from China in Sept. 2010
