Thanksgiving

What am I thankful for this year. I am thankful for my wonderful and amazing children. They continue to surprise me each and every day. I am thankful to have landed such a wonderful man as a husband. John is so good to me and girls. I am so lucky to have a man that will help out around the house and with the children without me getting mad. By this time next year he will be back in the military and that will be an all new adventure. I am thankful to be able to continue on our get out of debt journey. I am thankful to have such a wonderful mother who watches over my children with such love and care that I do not ever bat an eye lash and worry if my children are getting anything other than the very best of care throughout the day. My dad has turned out to be a much better Grandfather than I ever imagined. I am thankful for so much more this year. I really should get back to work.

Kids Say the Darndest Things

My little Natalee is always saying something that makes us laugh and this is just the latest example. John was dropping me off at the office on Friday after we had lunch together. John was on an important phone call so I waited for him to get off to hear about it. Well anyway, my lovely 3 year old yells at me, "Hey, Slow poke, Get out!!" What is wrong with that kid? I thought she loved me. Well needless to say we all just busted up laughing at her. It was so funny.

John has news

Well John is one step closer. Many of you are probably not aware of this so here is goes. John has decided to re-join the military. He is going into the National Guard. He is not sure if he is going in full time of part time. He has received his last batch of needed paperwork from the Marine Corp so we will see. At this point, the only thing we are sure of is that we do not want to move too far away. It is our hope that he will stay right here in G'Vegas. If he goes in the reserves then there is no questions, but if he goes active we may have to move to Fayetteville. For now we are planning to stay right here.

Sad day in our Country

My gosh. This is the saddest day for our country. We have elected so many people over the years and I truly feel that this is the worst batch we have ever put in office. My heart breaks for all of the unborn babies that will be murdered with the assistance of my tax dollars. We all have a choice when it comes to this and it is called BIRTH CONTROL. An abortion is not birth control and we as a country need to realize that. Yes, I am pro choice...choose abstinence or birth control. There are too many family's out there that would love to adopt each and every one of those babies. Myself included.
This is not just about out babies. It is about so much more. Now I am going to have to pay even more to "spread the wealth". If a person wants a new house, car, groceries...get a job. I understand that there are situations that do not allow a person to be able to work and I fully understand this, but to sit home and do nothing simple because you know that you will be taken care of by me it simply not fair. I work hard for my money and I know that it never seems to be enough.
Think about it people. There was a reason that it was so rainy yesterday. The angels were crying for us. I will continue to pray for all of those in office. I pray that God will have a hand in every decision that is made. I love my country and I really pray for the best.
