I love these big bright blue eyes but who does she look like? Other than looking like a baby cricket, most of the other children say she just looks like a baby.

Spring
Spring is beautiful. In the rolling hills of Tennessee the weather is crisp and cool with more days of warmth that bring a much needed break from the cold bare winter. Here, the first signs of spring are the blooming of the brilliant yellow jonquils and forsythia bushes. Now, the wild crab apple trees, dogwoods,…
Raw Milk in Tennessee
For over a year now the citizens of tennessee have been trying to regain their freedom to buy and drink raw milk. HB1623 & SB1984 have been dragged around the TN state house since the middle of February back in 2005. But finally there is a chance that the Senate at least is going to…
Roy Herron’s Red Herring – SB2993
I’m always suspicious when I see those who are normally in favor of killing unborn children suddenly positioning themselves to be pro-life. Roy has been a long time pro-abort who never met an abortion he didn’t like. In fact, far from being a moderate on abortion, he was one of only 9 senators to vote…
Ron Paul – The End of Dollar Hegemony
HON. RON PAUL OF TEXAS Before the U.S. House of Representatives February 15, 2006 The End of Dollar Hegemony A hundred years ago it was called “dollar diplomacy.” After World War II, and especially after the fall of the Soviet Union in 1989, that policy evolved into “dollar hegemony.” But after all these many years of…
Breastfeeding – The ultimate Immunization
According to the Iowa Extension Service, every teaspoon of breastmilk has 3,000,000 germ killing cells in it; so if a baby gets even one teaspoon a day, it is very valuable! (see articles below) Mother’s milk is truly an incredible provision that God designed. I am amazed at its wonders–as they are too numerous to…

WHEREAS, administered by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), the goal of the National Animal identification System (NAIS) program using Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags is to register every farm and every domesticated animal (including non-food…
Planned Parenthood of Tennessee is afraid… and they should be
I received an “urgent appeal” from Planned Parenthood today that said they needed me to contact the 2006 Public Health Family Assistance Sub-Comm concerning SJR-127 which just passed the Senate. So I did. Here is what I sent to the committee: As a Tennessean, I’m over joyed about SJR127, the proposed amendment to our Constitution…
it’s not enough to just have chicken pox…..
we have to get extreme cases of chicken pox to make life even more interesting 😉 My 6 year old has them bad. However the good news is that yesterday was the worst day for her and she seems to be on a upswing with the spots slowing down and the first ones starting to…
info on chicken pox
The most common season is late winter and early spring. The incubation is anywhere from 10 to 21 days. Usually fever starts before the appearance of the bumps by 1 to 2 days. The contagious period starts 1 to 2 days before the appearance of the rash and ends when all the bumps are crusted,…
Just when you think you are at your limit…..
just remember it can always get worse….. Annabelle and Mariah have chicken pox and most likely the other 5 will come down with it soon. For all those wondering why the blog posts have been sporadic…. life is just very interesting and entertaining around here 😉
it’s all about me!
Have you ever stopped to think about how selfish children are! Just listen! If it isn’t someone whining, it is someone crying or someone asking yet for something else. Though much of the asking and crying is legit…it is selfish really. Children are naturally concerned about themselves most of the time. –The 18 month old…
soft and furry
The 3 to 5 year old stage of life is a humorous one. One day I intend on putting a book together of all the “Kid Funnies” I have written down over the years. Recently Patrick was sitting next to me and admiring Annabelle saying, ” Look mom, she likes it when I pet her.”…
the thing i hate most
I absolutely hate any sickness that includes throwing up. This past week, the 18 month old caught some sort of stomach bug that was really bad! This wasn’t an easy 24 hr. thing…it was days! She threw up everywhere many times over and because she is female and 18 months old…she overreacts and makes things…
