I don't get to watch Oprah very often but we just got back from playing outside and the kids are warming up and playing and I am cooking supper and have Oprah on. Not sure what they are all talking about, assuming President Elect Obama but there was a song that brought me to tears.. not hard being that my hormones are RACING.. but I got to think about this opportunity before us with a new president, new representatives and the power that WE have to make a change. It seems hard to believe that WE... you and me can make a difference but we can. I have wrote to my congressmen no less than 5 times regarding my son in the past two years and there have been some changes... small changes but changes. Wheather you are for Obama, against, hate politics in general... It is soo important now more than ever to stand up for what you believe... make your voice heard... I don't know what will happen with this new president but I am astounded by the way some Americans have taken this opportunity and embrased it... not because he is colored... well, some because of that... but because it CAN be a new start... a new way of life... I don't argree with everything he stands for and you will never find a person except for the good Lord who is perfect in this life... I know I cannot cast the first stone :) I have taken the stand that I am going to support this new President, make my voice heard... and do the only thing I can do.. PRAY for guidance and support for all of our leaders... church leaders, school leaders, State Leaders and yes... our President Mr. Obama.. Because without Prayer...what do we have!!! Out of anyone in this world... who really needs our prayers the most... the man who WILL lead our country... like it or not!! So, one song... this is what leads me to write this... I HATE talking politics... I have my opinions and views and do not usually share... but I felt compelled. I look at my kids and growing belly and think about WHAT could be... hard times... good times... Only one person knows... And I will be praying that he is guiding our new Commander and Chief. Blessings to all...

wow! That is a moutain of snow in your front yard!!!!! Nice belly!!
I can and do pray for Obama... my main issue with him is he is so anti-life with his pledging to sign the FOCA... I can't stop thinking of all the babies that will die.. even at 9 months gestation b/c he thinks its a woman's right to chose... What about the God-given right to life for everyone?? To me that says alot about a man. You gotta stand up for all people- especially the innocent with no voices. I will pray that he comes to see that just because a baby isn't born yet doesn't mean it doesn't deserve to live!!!
I agree whole heartedly with you on the abortion. I want everyone to have a choice including the babies.. they are the only ones without a choice and without a voice.. There is adoption for a reason.. People have a choice to prevent pregnancy or not and it is unfortunate that it is just as easy to end a pregnancy as it is to prevent it. I will pray to that he see's the light on that and some other items!!! Prayer.. stronger than anything else out there.. :)
Tanya couldn't have said it any better. But yep, he's our president, and there is NOTHING we can do so all we can hope for is that he does the best he can do and leads our country well and makes some wise decisions. I was not for Obama but it's not going to make me miserable for the next 4 years, we have to embrace it because that's our only choice. We just have to hope for the best.
And look at that snow! oh my!
Wow! You have such a tiny belly!! I'm only 7 weeks and already much bigger than you - so sad......!! congrats again!!
