They say "beauty is in the eye of the beholder," but I would like to challenge this statement and say that true beauty is actually very universal. It is universal in that most all people can see or recognize beauty that springs from the inside out. I've often marveled at the sight of a child [...]

Starbucks
I fully realize the recent Starbucks "Christmas" controversy is Internet contrived (and Christians aren't really up in arms about it), BUT I had to put my two cents in anyway--just in case anyone thought there was a war on Christmas going on at Starbucks.
Gender Roles
I've debated writing this post for a while because of emotions on both sides of the debate, but the idea keeps coming back to me so I wanted to put it into words. I am a mom of preschool aged children. Three of them to be exact. They are each unique and wonderful! I have [...]
An Open Letter to My Husband
There is no way I could have known 15 years ago how much I would love you now. Then, when we were dating, life was fun, but I didn't know how much I would love you in the years to follow. There were movie dates, trips to Boone, and fun days out with friends. There [...]
Voting, Morality, and Freedom!
I'm sitting on a comfortable sofa watching my kids have a dance party. I just finished a coffee made from my home espresso machine, and I type my opinions to a blog from an Apple computer. Every day I take advantage of things people all around the world could only dream of having. A roof [...]
Brainwashed
Some time ago I saw a story about a well known family. A family with a lot of kids, you've probably heard of them....The Duggars. This post isn't about them or the amount of children they have, instead it stems from a comment underneath an article I read. This commenter knowing nothing of the family [...]

I saw a refreshing news article the other day and it wasn't just the story that spoke to me, it was what wasn't said. There is so much hate in America against different groups of people that stories are swayed, opinions are made, and news stories don't exist without some sort of undertone. Story after [...]
Abortion Fraud
The first statement I'm going to make is purely speculation, and the second is truth as I see it. You've probably seen the abortion video that has gone viral of the girl videoing her own abortion: http://vimeo.com/84797427 and the Cosmopolitan Article here: http://www.cosmopolitan.com/advice/health/why-i-filmed-my-abortion. So, as I said, my first point is speculation. Yes, it is based purely [...]
Easter
I want to talk about Easter! I realize the optimal time to have written this blog probably would have been a few days ago, but that didn't happen over the crazy weekend with three kiddos and a sick hubby. Let's just say I'm uber prepared for next Easter. Let's call it planning ahead <wink, wink>. Two days [...]
The “BEST” Job in the World!!!!!
I watched this video pop up over and over again on Facebook, figuring it was probably another ad about mom's complaining about how difficult their jobs were, and since I don't like this mentality I left it alone. But after about the 10th time seeing this snapshot above I finally watched it. So many thoughts [...]
