I realized something lately. Stay at home moms (and dads) or homemakers do a lot. I know I am busier and do more at home then I ever did at work. My job is 24/7. It involves meal planning and preparation. Child care, which involves a multitude of tasks (activities, learning, etc) managing the household [...]
Saw this on Marta Writes and love love love it! DO IT ANYWAY by Mother Theresa People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered; Forgive them anyway.

He is planning to burn the Quran and all over his church has billboards that say “Islam is the Devil”. But [...]
I feel so passionate when it comes to freedoms, rights, religion, politics and a better world in general. Being a mother has made me a more controlling person and a more protective person and as a result more vocal about the world in which my kids live. It’s important to me to make the world [...]
I have watched this video 5 times this morning. One of the most inspirational things I’ve seen. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDgVske63cY&feature=search From the perspective of a parent this video is both heartwrenching and heartwarming at the same time.

This is not the time to throw up our hands, nor to exhaust ourselves over-defining our problems. It is time to choose our lives. In so doing, we’ll have a rippling impact that will make all [...]
