Clyde:
There is no one quite like Clyde.
Clyde is a New Orleans Saints Gnome. He has traveled with me for the last 2 years, and he will be joining me on The World Race.
Clyde’s Passport has stamps from:
*Israel: where he broke his head. :/
*New Zealand: where he got lost on a beach for a few hours…oops!
*Australia: where he broke his foot scuba diving, it was all my fault and he’s forgiven me.
*Greece: where he cruised around the Grecian Islands—no triadic story there.
*He has even made it to Alaska. He really loved Alaska.
Clyde’s skills:
*He really makes purple duct tape look good.
*Good friends and even epic dance parties have begun due to his presence.
*He never thinks my ideas are bad.
Clyde is getting ampt for The World Race. He can’t believe this is really happening. Neither can I. When I think about what this next year has in store for me I can’t help but cry. I don’t know why. I don’t typically cry over things like this. I’m pretty sure I cry because I feel beyond blessed. I cannot really believe that my life is going to be apart of making the world a better place. I cannot believe that for the next year my life is going to be loving on orphans, teaching young girls how to make a better living for themselves, helping rebuild homes and churches, and traveling with some seriously amazing people, and experiencing God in ways I am not even sure of right now. HOLY COW! How Cool?!
I can’t begin to explain how humbled I am by all of you who have helped out to support me so far. Whether by email, reposting my blog on your facebook status, teachers allowing me to speak in front of their small group classes, homeschool moms taking time to hear me out, setting up multi-family garage sales and lots of people donating to the sale, and for those of you who have donated their money. I am so blown away. So, from the bottom of my tiny heart…thanks! J
FINIANCIAL UPDATE:
As of right now I have $4,075! My required amount is $15,500.
God is bringing it in!
