One, two, three kids

It's been a while since I did anything with blogger, so I wanted to try it again. I love blogging as I find it can give others insight into others lives, thus helping one not feel so alone.  I now have three children. 3, 2, and 4 months old. These children are absolutely my angels. I love them so much. Their laughter, innocent, joy. They make me so happy. Childrearing isn't easy. I had a whole list of things I'd never do with my kids. Including "no TV" (everyone laugh with me). We now own a TV and they can watch it twice a day. When I first had our third we watched movies all day. It caused my children to be more rambunctious, so it is now limited.  I am blessed beyond measure. God has blessed me with 3 BEAUTIFUL girls. He has blessed me with an amazing husband. We aren't rich but we aren't starving. I am grateful for His provision in our lives.  I can't remember which Bible verse it is, but the Bible states that "He can do exceedingly Abundantly ...

The Procedure by Choice42

 The Procedure. Abortion. Murder. Whatever you like to call it, few seem to know the true horrors of the abortion industry.  A short film was made in secret by a group of lead animators that is essential for you to watch.  Why did this medical professional quit after doing a simple procedure?

It's Not Just Your Life

 A common misconception when you get married, is that you still have a life outside of your spouse. You do, in a sense. But now you have a partner. Partner in crime, friend, lover. It's not just your life anymore. Then you have kids. You now have at least two extra people in your life.  The way you live your life has a direct impact on your family. If you travel all the time, you run the risk of losing a close connection with your spouse and children. If the way you respond to confrontation is anger and shouting, then you need to take a pause and figure out your emotion. Anger and yelling should never be the way to resolve conflict.  One of the most shelfish things you can say to a spouse is, "it's MY life." Yes. You have a life. But consider the woman/man you married. They gave up a part of their life for you. Independence, a job, own living space, privacy. It's a partnership, not a competition.  I hope I never hear those words from my spouse. I hope I never thin...

Healing and Childhood Memories

 I am not convinced anyone truly heals. We can move forward, we can try to do better. But true healing while forgetting? That is impossible. You will always have those memories even if you wish they didn't exist.  My father wasn't a Christian when I was a child. He was a preacher for almost 10 years when he realized he wasn't saved. I was saved when I was 4. I've had people behave as if that made my life easy, but temptations still happen and I still did/do things I become ashamed of.  My father and mother were both scary people before they were saved. Acting holy and blameless in public, but terrifying and like devils at home. My mom would exaggerate and we would be punished harshly for those exaggerations. My father would yell, storm around the house, and if we look at him wrong (or breathed the wrong way) we would be punished.  As a child, most of my good memories involve when dad was around other people. When I realized this as I got older, I realized how bitter ...

Roe v Wade

 Roe V Wade has been overturned! I applaud the decision of the court, yet at the same time I am saddened by the fact that justice was not served. Babies will still be murdered via pill in trigger law states. Babies will still be murdered because of the cowardace of judicial systems.  If you are a mother and you want to keep your baby, but are afraid because of resources, here is a list of some that can help you.  Government: 1. WIC (Up until age 5) (They often carry breast pumps) 2. Food Stamps 3. Pregnancy Medicaid.  4. Housing Assistance  Local: 1. Food cupboards  -Some college campuses have them for the community.  -Some churches have them for the community -There are some government food cupboards, but they can be difficult to apply for.  2. Clothing cupboards -Some food cupbords include these -Some churches have these 3. Crisis Pregnancy Centers -They typically have baby clothes, diapers, and wipes. Sometimes they also carry formula or breast...

Investing and Startups

When you are investing in a startup, when can you expect to start seeing a return on your investment? That is a big question when you are thinking of investing in any new opportunity. I looked into several start ups when I was in college and followed some ones done by Deaf individuals closely.  Many times you don't see what's going on behind the scenes until the last month or so before launch. This is NOT uncommon. Many things change before the platform or program gets launched. They may change founding members, actors, designers, etc. The finished product is what you see, not everything that happened/happens behind the scenes.  If you are considering investing, don't expect to see a return on the start up until more than a year has passed. Start ups, when done right, take a lot of time. If you want excellence, give them time to produce excellence.  Now we are leading to a start up I wanted to bring up. Loor.tv is a new start-up that is facing Cancel Culture head on and ...

Why the new Abortion Ban in Texas is effectively useless

 If you have been paying any attention to the news recently, you will have noticed that Texas passed an anti-abortion bill that says it will stop abortions at 6 weeks of pregnancy. It is a heartbeat bill but allows outside people to sue (Ie: the dad who didn't get a say, the parents, but usually just the abortive mom.)  Why is this bill useless? At every clinic they are not going to set up medically minded police officers to enforce the law. There are over 14,000 abortion clinics in Texas alone or places that do abortions. (Hospitals and OBGYNs are included) You would need at LEAST 14,000 cops are more to be able to monitor every clinic. There are over 78,000 officers in Texas. For two officers per clinic you would need 28,000 officers. This would leave only 50,000 officers to keep the peace in the ENTIRE STATE of Texas. In 2020 there were a little over 3,000 officers in Dallas, TX alone.  If you expect an officer in each clinic, you're being dishonest. Or you're at least...
