sick sick, sick, sick

That's the score 4 sick, 9 well. Some of the wells are threatening to be sicks. Only Lydia ended up on antibiotics with bronchitis. She is handling it as well as any princess. I am holding the baby who can only sleep sitting up. It is a rough job but somebody has to do it. I think I hear the children cleaning as I sit here watching the Ravens vs. Steelers.

Speaking of Steelers, Samantha bought Lydia a Steelers cheerleading dress for Christmas. It is too cute unless your are a Ravens fan. I have 2 Steeler fans in a house full of Raven fans. The Steelers fans are trying to indoctrinate the two year old.

If you have this problem and follow this formula your results will be..... That is not to say that there is not instruction and warning and tho...

As our American freedoms, according to the constitution, are being run over, altered, and outright dismissed one must remember these are not the freedoms God has promised us. I sometimes despair as I watch our freedoms being eroded little by little and sometimes in big chunks. I watch our media (television, social and advertising) spreading propaganda on all sides and I am disheartened. America is founded on freedom and our emotions and beliefs get tangled up in this freedom. Our national anthem has brought tears to my eyes on the idealistic image of a nation that loves and serves God. However, America is made up of imperfect people who sin and need to repent. The Word of God doesn't teach community repentance, the Word doesn't teach national repentance, and the Word doesn't teach American freedom. The word teaches individual repentance and surrender to the King of Kings and Lord of Lord, the triune God, THE Creator of heaven and earth. Isaiah 9:6 says "For a child...
