Guest Post: McKenzie

About two weeks ago I got a message on facebook, a friend and also a wonderful young lady, her name was McKenzie. She shared with me how Landry impacted her life, and that evening I shared it with Michael, we both were both amazed and felt so blessed! As we kept on talking we decided we would like to share it on my blog, so I asked Kenzie if she would like to and she said absolutely!! So here is my guest McKenzie and what she shared!


Hi everyone! My name is McKenzie Miller and I am just finishing up my freshman year at Ashland University. So this entire year I have stressed about what I wanted to do with my life after college and what major I wanted to pursue. I had been really praying for God to open my eyes and just show me what I was meant to do but I never was reassured about anything. Well I had been reading Twila’s blog the other week and I came to a part and just stopped in my tracks. She said when she and Michael found out Landry was born with Down syndrome, she wasn't different. She was incredibly special and they were truly blessed that God put her in their life. Right then and there I knew I wanted to be an intervention specialist and teach kids with disabilities. I felt like God hit me on the head and was like “KENZIE! This is what you are supposed to do!!”The very next day I went to my academic adviser and declared my major. It’s crazy to think how much little Landry has impacted me already, and she doesn't even know it. Landry is so incredibly lucky and blessed to have parents like Michael and Twila. I can’t wait til Landry gets older, because who knows, maybe I will be teaching her. J
