Wednesday’s Child: 17-year-old Emilee wishes to be adopted before aging out of system this year
Every Wednesday I feature a child recently highlighted by a local Wednesday's Child newscast to share the stories of children from around the country who are waiting for a family. My hope is that this can broaden exposure for the children highlighted, but also serve as a reminder that these children represent thousands of children currently in the foster-care system. Perhaps their stories will inspire you to consider opening your home to a child needing a family. For more information and to . . .

LET’S TALK HOLIDAY MUSIC | ON THURSDAY’S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM NOVEMBER 2011.
ON THURSDAY'S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM NOVEMBER 2011. We put up our Christmas tree yesterday, and officially broke out the Christmas music. I have a love/hate relationship with Christmas music. It makes me feel all warm and glow-y for about a week, and then I grow totally sick of it and don’t want to hear it again for another year. I think a part of this is the fact that, really, it’s pretty much the same 25-30 songs being recycled into different versions and genres every . . .

OCCUPY CHRISTMAS | ON THURSDAY’S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM NOVEMBER 2011.
ON THURSDAY'S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM NOVEMBER 2011. Well, folks, here I am again. At your service, poised and ready to take the fun out of another holiday! (Just kidding. Mostly.) Although, I AM planning on completely sitting out this Thanksgiving. My kids whine and complain ever year about the traditional Thanksgiving fare. I’m not really excited about cooking all day just to hear them complain about the food. You know what I hate? Whining. You know what else I . . .

View this post on Instagram A post shared by Kristen Howerton (@kristenhowerton) I really fell off my book-reading habit during the pandemic, choosing to spend my days doom-scrolling instead.

I set a goal for this year to read 40 books and I'm on track so far. He's . . .

IDEAS FOR AN ETHICAL HALLOWEEN | ON THURSDAY’S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM OCTOBER 2011.
ON THURSDAY'S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM OCTOBER 2011. I’ve been wanting to do a follow-up post on the connection between child slavery and chocolate. In case you missed it, the low-down is here . . . but in a nutshell a BBC documentary revealed that child labor and even child trafficking is rampant in chocolate production, and that chocolate from most mainstream candy companies can be traced back to farms employing (and even buying) children to work in dangerous conditions. . . .
