Hola Paulita! I hope you are feeling better and are not suffering from your allergies. I thought about this long and hard and this is what I came up with. Republicans are against abortion and so am I! I hate to know that for w/e reasons women take the choice of having an abortion and this procedure is done. UNNACEPTABLE! Everyone has a choice and obviously they made the wrong one! Not protecting themselves. For the ones that end up pregnant unfortunately because of a rape is still not right to have an abortion. That child still has the right to live and should be given that chance. If God allowed that to happen is for a reason! Even if McCain would of won I think that abortion still wouldn't of been forbidden at all. Bush is a republican and has not done a darn thing about it. His focus has been in the war that has been going on for 2 long! Our troops are out there fighting for our freedom to protect us and are not being taken care of when then come back nor their families. I would hate to be in those peoples positions where their loved ones are away at war not knowing if they will make it back safely! Obama has been chosen to be our next president and I think we need to pray that he is taken by the hand by God who is all powerful to guide him through this difficult journey he is about to start because the debt we are in is not going to be an easy task for him. I remember when Bill Clinton was in office that life was pretty comfortable and things were much easier. I don't remember being in so much stress thinking if I would be able to make the payments. Things changed and I hope the things change now for the best for everyone! I love my country and I am proud to be an American and I just hope that God continues to protect this land we live in because where would we end up!? I pray that God let things happen for the best for EVERYONE!!! Cheer up cousin everything will work out okay! love you lots!

big hugs for you paula. i'm sure that i would be feeling the same way today had the turnout been different. i just hope that our country can come together and get us out of the mounds of debt that we are in, help americans get back on their feet with jobs, and getting our troops out of a war that we should have been out of a long time ago.

I contemplated wearing black...
I needed some good support, so I listened to Rush Limbaugh at lunch time & he pointed out that conservatives didn't lose THAT much. In California, they upheld that marriage should be between just a man and a woman! We have to trust God. Sometimes I really wonder if Obama will get worse...if he is the anti-Christ. Then, I try to put my faith in God, ask Him to make me strong!

Maybe this time?

We took Connor to an ultrasound to Delnor Community Hospital in Geneva to check his kidneys. He had a little more fluids in there than what he should have since he was born, and we checked him at 6 and now 15 months to make sure that this little detail corrected itself. We are SO hoping that this time he will be given a clean bill of health, but the technician wouldn't tell us much. She did say that both kidneys look better than last time (Yeepee!!!), but didn't say simply "fine" just yet. I'm hoping that the specialist will use PERFECT to describe it, and we can just go on our merry way as usual. Of course, before they started with the ultrasound, I HAD to take pictures! Connor was NOT happy, and Brian was a little annoyed, but he obliged for TWO only. Hubbies!!! What do they know about anything??? In any event, when I saw the pictures that I took this evening, I thought, "Maaaan, no wonder why I am so much in LOVE with this kid!!!" Just in case you c...

Summer come soon!

The weather is actually pretty crazy around here. Saturday we had an awsome day, and then Sunday we were freezing, yet again. On Saturday Coco and I went to see Jake at his soccer game. Just too cute to see all these kids chasing the ball. Nicole tried to pay attention, but mostly she played with Leah, Jake's sister. On Sunday, we had to get Nicole ready for her ballet recital picture. So, I read the instructions, and I start panicking. she needs to have her hair in a low ballet bun . WHAT??? WHAAAAT? Aren't buns the ones that you eat with a hotdog, ketchup and mustard??? Darn! Here I go to the internet. The art of ballet buns , reads an article. WHAT? I don't have time to learn an art, I just need to get my daughter ready! I was really getting very antsy, since I cannot make a decent pony tail to save my life. What are we going to do??? The instructions on the internet seem pretty simple, but I don't know... Anyways, I ran to Walgreens to get a couple of hair pins, hai...

Block party 08

Image
I cannot believe the Block party came around so soon! We had a very nice time with new neighbors... These are Maddy's parents, Sean and Linda, and her big brother Steve. Maddy is Coco's BFF. They are always spending the night over, either here or their home. They are a nice family, we're really happy to have them as our new friends. And of course, the bike race... we really need to get Coco to use the bike without the back wheels. She was a little too big for the tricycle! We had our Republican Senator, Chris Lauzen, come and visit. He was so impressed to meet Cesar, he extended an invitation for him to come and visit him to the senate in Springfield. Cesar wants to organize other kids and families in the neighborhood to go as well... And of course, we had our local heros, the firemen. This fireman, Mike, told me my face was familiar, and I told him that one time, as I was pregnant with Connor, they had to come and get me from my bed, down the stairs and to the hospital in...
