Baby Formula & Pepsi

Baby Formula & Pepsi ... Out of the blue? Yup. Today we had a chance to pass along some baby formula to a teen dad in our community. The connection was certainly unexpected, uninvited, and unbelievable. What started with sharing some much needed baby formula turned into a conversation about why there are no programs like Muffin Morning (Katie leads each week for the teen moms in Ponoka) for the teen dads. We talked about paintball and hanging out and before I knew it I was off on a drive with a young dad who was so proud to show me his cool car and all the work he had done to fix it up. The obvious conclusion to our time in his mind was to stop at 7-11 for a drink before heading back to Church where we had met to to pass along the baby formula. So off to 7-11 where my favorite cold beverage and I reacquainted. A cold can of Pepsi, a proud and ambitious teen dad, and of course - some baby formula. Yup, out of the blue.
