I can pray

Today I've been super contemplative. Everyone has a calling, I struggle searching for mine. There are things I CAN do, but is it God's will I do them? I know in my heart, my calling is to be a mommy, and like Eve, I was created to be a helpmeet. I really enjoy the children we keep, I learn so much as to patience, how to enjoy them, wisdom in dealing with them. I hunger to homeschool. I have so many ideas for making it interesting, and effective. All of my interests are domestic. I know that is why God made me. But in the mean time...
My niece Kaylynn just loved this link. So do I.
God bless

I'm in the GOP

Who would have ever thought I'd get into politics, but here I am.Tonight I met with a committee of the Cumberland County Republicans to work on a web site. I am excited about what oportunities there are to be effective. To roll up my sleeves and get to real work, not sit idly back watching Obama and getting angry. The web site is allready well established by Mr. Sykes. Please visit and watch it grow. www.cctngop.org

Arah's Wedding

I was in a wedding!!!!
My friend Arah Kidwell married Michael Turner on April 18th. She threw her flowers three times, once a little boy caught them, once the driver caught them, and the third time they fell apart.
When they were ready to leave, the driver opened the door, placed Arah inside, then hopped in and drove off with her, leaving the groom standing with his mouth open. :)

April 15th Tax Day Tea Party near you

Are you fed up with a Congress and a president who:
  • vote for a $500 billion tax bill without even reading it?
  • are spending trillions of borrowed dollars, leaving a debt our great-grandchildren will be paying?
  • consistently give special interest groups billions of dollars in earmarks to help get themselves re-elected?
  • want to take your wealth and redistribute it to others? punish those who practice responsible financial behavior and reward those who do not?
  • admit to using the financial hurt of millions as an opportunity to push their political agenda?
  • run up trillions of dollars of debt and then sell that debt to countries such as China?
  • want government controlled health care?
  • want to take away the right to vote with a secret ballot in union elections? refuse to stop the flow of millions of illegal immigrants into our country?
  • appoint a defender of child pornography to the Number 2 position in the Justice Department?
  • want to force doctors and other medical workers to perform abortions against their will?
  • want to impose a carbon tax on your electricity, gas and home heating fuels?
  • want to reduce your tax deductibility for charitable gifts?
  • take money from your family budget to pay for their federal budget

On Wednesday next week there will be Tax Day Tea Parties everywhere in protest to the wrongs being done by our government just as they were at the Boston Tea Party

What's the point? The protests make national news. One small step to build again the walls like Nehemiah. Line upon Line, precept upon precept, here a little there a little.

Crossville will be hosting speakers, passing out information, signing protests, and mailing tea bags to Washington

Becky Bowling

Just one of those freak things, I sat the camera down to video myself, just happened to be the only strike I threw!!!

Aunt Becky

This was quite an eventful weekend. Kaylynn swallowed a coin while she and I were in town. I pulled over, got her out of her car seat and called 911. She was breathing, throwing up, and drinking water. But just in case, I wanted them to know where I was. Obviously she survived, and so did I. Ella has Klumpkies Palsy in her left hand. A rare condition where there is nerve damage, she is learning to cope. God knows what He's about.
