I am putting together a photobook for Makenna. I have so many pictures of her it's ridiculous, so I decided to make something that would hopefully be special to her for a long time. I would have loved something like this with all my baby pictures in it. I'm putting these pictures up here because my mom will show my blog to Makenna, and hopefully she'll actually want to talk to me on the phone sometime. Or even come visit... =)
a new hope

"To the people of poor nations, we pledge to work alongside you to make your farms flourish and let clean waters flow; to nourish starved bodies and feed hungry minds. And to those nations like ours that enjoy relative plenty, we say we can no longer afford indifference to suffering outside our borders; nor can we consume the world's resources without regard to effect. For the world has changed, and we must change with it."
I don't care what your political preferences are.
I don't care if you don't "like" President Obama.
You can't deny that it's time for the world to change. You can't say that feeding the starving isn't right, that loving the earth and cutting back on the energy and resources we waste everyday is bad. You can't say that a man with a big heart and a great mind isn't going to do just that. CAUSE HE IS. And it's about time. Finally the citizens trying to make a difference will be matched by their government. FINALLY we are a fully working machine.
