Day 2690: Children and Me

They are different ways of getting everything I want – that’s what I’ve realized

It’s 12 : 11 PM on day 2690 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, read Ephesians 3:16 and promote my 50 New Feet Campaign benefiting MiracleFeet – raised $6 926 only $5 574 more to raise by June 17, 2018 to help 50 kids with clubfoot (thanks so much to everyone who has helped out so far).

This morning as I looked at a picture of my niece (cousin’s daughter) and I, I realized that I could still love children and be a part of children’s lives without ever having children or adopting them (I don’t know if that will ever be enough for me but it could be).

Day 2688: Life Lesson in a Milkshake Tasting

May you have the courage to try different milkshakes– that’s hope for the world.

It’s 12 : 16 PM on day 2688 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, read Philippians 4:13 and promote my 50 New Feet Campaign benefiting MiracleFeet – raised $6 876 only $5 624 more to raise by June 17, 2018 to help 50 kids with clubfoot (thanks so much to everyone who has helped out so far).

Yesterday I tried Rum & Raisin Milkshake in keeping with the promise I made to myself that I would try things that I often don’t and having previously tried Peppermint Milkshake, Oreo Milkshake, Mocha Milkshake, Coffee Milkshake and Strawberry Milkshake I have come to the conclusion that I have outgrown milkshakes (my poor father has spent so much money on milkshakes that I didn’t even finish needless to say he was not impressed ) sometimes you have to try everything to realize that the things on the list re not what you want and that maybe you re destined to forge your own path (yes, I realized all that from tasting milkshakes)
