Boom!

Me, Mariela, and a ron-ron on my right shoulder

Boom!  Sometimes I say "Boom!" when something awesome happens.  I just said it.  So if A=B and B=C.....you guessed it....awesomeness has occured.  It took about 3 days for people to volunteer to get all of my girls at the farm birthday sneakers this year.  In fact, I've had several people contact me wanting to get shoes, and I've had to tell them we can't.  We're out of feet!  Boom!  Thats awesome.  I'll keep everybody posted, because theres always a chance that more little girls will call PTC their home in the next year, and I might need some birthday-buying volunteers.  But for now, we're all covered.  About 200 happy toes will have warm places to do whatever happy toes do at The Farm.  Thank you for volunteering and for your support of my girls.

I've also had several people contact me wanting to know about donating gently used shoes.  All systems go here.  Folks out in our neck of the woods in Honduras walk alot.  Even if we don't use some shoes at the farm with our girls, PTC has the opportunity to minster to the community whenever we have supplies.  So, if you've got shoes, send them in.  Like I said, we've got alot of extra luggage, and I'll make sure they go to a good cause and further the name of Christ.

I also just got the last of my pictures from the first half of this year up.  It took a really long time.  I work 60 hour weeks while I'm home, and so I've had to do my picture uploading in spurts around work and sleeping.  But I'm finally done.  Go check them out if you haven't.  You'll see some really pretty faces.  Well, not only mine, but alot of the girls down at The Farm as well.  Looking at the pictures, I realized that my beard ruined alot of pictures that would otherwise have been wonderful.  Maybe in the future, I'll take advice from the girls when they tell me 80 times a day, "Mr. Ben, cut your beard!"
