Dear Steffani,
Of course you are on my list to talk about! You have a lot of shoes to pick from, girl. I always thought I would write about your black shoes with the bling on them. You like those shoes and so do I. We have had a lot of adventures together with those shoes! We have gone to California and shopped, ate in all kinds of restaurants, raced for parking spots and had a lot of laughs. They have gone to Starbucks numerous times and at all times of the day and night. They are part of our history.
I will never forget your yellow shoes. Every time you where them you say you love them and a little while later you say, "Oh yeah, these are the shoes that hurt my feet." They remind me that as an employer you are always willing and ready to walk through the hard stuff. You never ask anything of an employee that you are not willing to do yourself. In fact, you usually do the hard stuff for us. I have so much respect for you as an employer and leader, Steffani. You always go before us and set the example.
I have seen you give so sacrificially of your time, your talents, your love and even your possessions. You have given people the coat off your back, the purse off your arm, and the shoes off your feet. You never think of anything as yours, only God's.
The shoes I love the most, however, are your tennis shoes. They have been there for me during the hardest challenges of my life. You have walked the road with me whenever I needed you. You have
walked beside me as a mentor, as an accountability partner, as an employer, as a sister, and a friend.
I love you and consider you to be one of the great blessings in my life.
