my summer pair
You want to know the main reason why I love them so much?
These feet are why.
Whose feet are they on? Blake and Silas' big brother's. Abe - he is my other son. A son in my heart. My son in Ethiopia. Their family is my family, my family is their family. This is the miracle of Christ. Broken and Redeemed. Lost and Found. Adopted...in Him.
I've seen TOMS in action. I've seen that they are honest to their word. One For One. They are helping in this big, wide, world. They've helped my family!
So now I've given two kids a pair of shoes (if you're not familiar with how TOMS works, please read about their mission here)...enough? No, but it's a start...and everyone has to start somewhere. Intentions are just that...intentions, action is what is needed! So, next time you need a pair of shoes, consider TOMS. Sure, you might be able to get a cheaper pair of shoes, but just think about them as 1/2 price...half for you, half for a child somewhere in the world who will live a healthier, happier life...because you were willing to give.
(Note: for those who live close to me Glicks sells them!)

I love my TOMS! Everytime I wear them I pray for the child who is wearing "my" other pair of shoes!! I didn't know Gliks sold them though..thanks for the heads up!!
I love my TOMS! Though I had the best pair that had a map of Africa on them and I've lost them somewhere... maybe in the mess of my car?!
I love the color of your TOMS. I also buy TOMS for birthday presents for my girlfriends. It's a great way to share their mission.
Super cool! I didn't know that Gliks carried them and I am pretty sure there is still a Glik's in Rolla I will have to go check them out. I have a hard time buying shoes online because I am worried the sizes will be different and not fit.
