I'll admit it, I'm telling you to go and read someone else's blog ;)...but, really, it's some great information and stuff that I didn't know!
One of my homeschool friends (and her daughter) have heeded the call to go shoeless for not just a day; but, the whole summer. They're doing this to raise awareness that there are people that have never owned a pair of shoes and end up contracting horrifying diseases like podoconiosis. Go and take a quick read (and look at the pictures) and see if there is anything you might feel led to do.

There is also a great website for those of us that still wear shoes, to help out. Have you heard of Tom's shoes? Well, here's the link to their website and for every pair of shoes you buy from them, they'll donate a new pair of shoes to a child that needs them! Awesome news I say! I haven't personally worn them; but, I'm considering buying the Kenya or Red Wedges, they look really cute!

Praying this finds you well and enjoying this wonderful Easter season...it's Palm Sunday tomorrow, I'm very excited. What a joyous celebration of our Lord and Savior entering Jerusalem..oh, and I get to learn, tomorrow afternoon, how to cook kosher, and make items for our Seder/Passover Meal next Friday at church. I'm thrilled!!!
Thank you Alisha for sharing our blog with your followers! I am so excited to see what God is doing through our chosen shoelessness <3
