I live in a ZOO!
I had to post these pictures, because it is what life is all about. I remember when i was young and how much i LOVED playing make-believe. Now that the kids are getting to that age, i am brought back to my favorite past-time. I want to encourage the creativity and be present in each and every moment with my kids. Owen and I were the photographers and guests at the ZOO and Caeden as you can see portrayed los animales. The above Zebra is eating hay. All the animals were behind a cage, so they couldn't "get us"! The masks were found at PBKids. There was a Hippo sucking his thumb in the water too, but i couldn't get the picture uploaded. Hope you enjoy living in a ZOO as much as I do!!

shoe 4 africa
FACT: To date, the AIDS pandemic has left behind more than 14 million orphans...approximately 92% of them live in Africa, If, as expected, the number of adults dying from AIDS rises over the next decade, Africa will largely be a nation of orphans.
I just read this fact from shoe4aftrica.org and an article in the most recent runners world magazine about this race in Kenya. check it out by going to this youtube video.
What a race that would have been to be a part of!
I am reading this book called Red Letters and it is opening my eyes to the devastation of a generation in Africa due to aids and genocide. I am praying about how God wants us to give and be a small part in helping in this crisis.
That is why i posted the link to hopechest.org and fivefor50.com. they are links to ministries that help with AIDS relief and caring for orphans.
