If you want to make a Doberman pancake, too, just do it by accident.  When you’re flipping the pancake, accidentally fold the pancake on itself and then intentionally try to fix it by sliding the top fold off itself.  You might get a Doberman and you might not.  My first try not even trying, it worked for me.  Good luck!
She even gave “Grace” before her pancake.

5/4/24 I overcame my shy nature, stepped out a couple steps and went for something “impossible”: to exchange a quick high five by random chance with the lead singer of my top favorite band.  It happened at my second show.  Of course only with Matt’s encouragement: thoughtfully picking a seat, gifting the tickets to me as a Christmas surprise, and nudging me when he saw the chance becoming possible, “Go give him a high five.”  



Dear Matt,

Always, thank you for your kind help in making my impossibilities seem easily possible.

Love, 

Emily

“Bear” Rinehart’s passing high five felt nearly as exciting as  meeting Bill Martin Jr. https://youtu.be/oDUsvRYhcmU?feature=shared in second grade, hearing him read aloud, and getting his autograph- all in our elementary school library.  I defintely remember he read aloud Barn Dance and Knots on a Counting Rope https://youtu.be/FgwmxMEiJ2U?feature=shared

Completion.

Thank you Matt for taking my picture.  There’s looking at you! I thought some things driving to the grocery store behind a truck and trailer.  First, Yes; that must be some good help in that cab.  Second, that's some well used scaffolding #mindofateacher Third, gratitude for the life of Jesus Christ and Him wanting to share it with me in Him  https ://youtube.com/clip/UgkxzXJyENvvL2pYAws7N3iWv_0Ebl5MCi--?si=mQefTiag4raNoHqP Third, Fourth,  (7/28/24 Thank you Lord God for Your gifts of prayer and promise and wonder of the extraordinary in the ordinary. 🐕‍🦺I am ending my final entry with the beginning of a 54 day Novena for two people I’ve never met, but by powerful mystery beyond my understanding, I feel strangely connected by prayer to pray for.

Walk. Wag. Repeat.

Fit check!  My Nitto Nomad Grapplers arrived!  I waited years for these tires to arrive on the market to fit my vision and another year to fit the budget.  I am still creating my very own bumper sticker 🎣 and my vision will be complete.  My bumper sticker inspiration courtesy of “Beau”: I never stuck it on my dogwalking vehicles, though.   Thank you, Guardian Angel, for turning the wheel just right. I wanted to keep Beau’s gift of encouragement to me in a bumper sticker in keepsake condition.  Once upon a time…  But I would walk “500” miles  And I would walk “500” more  Just to be the girl who walked “1000” miles To up- lift her car. Thanks Chris for making my Barbie Jeep dreams come true.  #yourdreamsdontworkunlessyoudo they say.

I met Hebrews 1:3 today.  I have a feeling that Scripture is going to be my favorite way He is told.   My favorite way Mary is told is “the greatest enemy of Satan”; I don’t think those exact words are in Scripture but her receptivity is definitely that vibe.    https://www.ewtn.com/catholicism/library/marys-enmity-towards-satan-was-absolute-8038    “On this planet we have a saying, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.” -Transformers: Age of Extinction  Mary is the enemy of the enemy; therefore; Mary is my friend.   I thought about how quiet Mary is.  I have seen some images of her crushing the serpent under the weight of her heel while holding Jesus as a baby.  I think that’s my favorite depiction of The Mother of God- Mary defeats evil holding infant hope.  That is mysterious power.  I can sink my teeth into that kind of mystery, and I will want to.   https://nds.edu/blog-entry/mother-mary-warrior-queen/ I only remember ...
