Dear Readers,
We all know that the Same-Sex marriage bill hit the floor and was passed.
I was at the Capital for 3 different days along with my sister and my Mom. We went with a group from our church only once and that was the HARDEST day I ever experienced.
I was made fun of, they kept nagging me, I was yelled at in my face and in my ear. I admit I have a short fuse and I'm pretty sure some of you know that. Well there were times I wanted to turn around face to the woman who was yelling in my ear and slap her in the face. BUT I didn't even turn around. I took a deep breath and just stayed where I was. God spliced a longer piece of fuse in with the one I was burning. They were trying and pushing the Christians to get mad and to make them say something. That's what they wanted.
On the bus ride home that day I just cried, it really cut me deep to see so many people hate us and hurt us because we did nothing other then not supporting their belief.
I said to mom "Mom I never want to go there again."
But sure enough that night my mind was changed. We got an email from Katy Key (our Pastors wife) saying that she loved seeing us stand up publicly for what was right and she looked forward to standing up for Christ again with us.
The next day we went...in the afternoon. It was very quite because we stayed out of the pit and just stood in the Senate lobby and the Senate chambers and prayed. We were made fun of and teased while we were in the Senate Chamber. They were taking pictures of my sister and I and trying to make us mad. We had to go pick up my brother from school so we got up and and left and when we did that you could hear the woman yell "Yes" because she thought she got rid of us.
Then we came back on the same day during the evening. We went with a friend of ours and we were there from 6:30 to 10:00pm standing holding signs and singing praises to God. There was one time where all the Christians were on their knees praying and singing. It was truly AMAZING!!!! The news people filmed it but they never showed it on the news. But it doesn't matter...the ONLY thing that matters is that God saw us.
Well that was my experience.
Dinners ready I have to go now:)

David Tyree - “Being the fact that I firmly believe that God created and ordained marriage between a man and a woman, I believe that that’s something that should be fought for at all costs,” said David Tyree, a former New York Giants star who spoke outside the New York Capitol today. “I’ll lay down everything I am to preserve the honor and integrity of the God that I serve.
STAND UP FOR WHAT YOU KNOW IS RIGHT...DON'T WAIT FOR THE OTHER GUY TO DO SOMETHING!!!!!
My Mom sister and I are possible going to the capital this week today or even Thursday or Friday to support TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE and to pray. If any of you who are reading this wants to go as a group not only with us but possibly with more people call my church...

BABY TIGHE
This is such a heart warming story.
For those of you who don't know this little boys name is Tighe.
He has been in the hospital since he was born. This darling baby boy was finally able to come home today after 20 weeks and 1 day. PRAISE GOD!!!!!
He's my "little buddy" I cant wait to see him in person although these photos are so breath taking.:)

Note
Dear Readers,
These last couple of months have been a total doozie!!
I am constantly thinking of Mrs. Murphy and just what could have been changed so she would be alive today. I wish there were such thing as a rewind remote for life. I think everyone thinks that at one time or another in their life.
I have a small shelf above the head of my bed that has a photo of all the animals I have had plus one of my Aunts dogs that have passed away. So every night when I go to sleep I always see all of their faces and I think of how much I miss them all. But I have been thinking a lot about my 2 kitties Moses and how it wasn't right for to die of kidney failure at only 8 years old. I think and regret how I couldn't cry for him because he died within a hour after I found out about Mrs. Murphy.
I think about my other kitty Pumpkin who was Moses' "wife" who died within a week or a couple days from him for no reason we could find. I think of how both of their deaths could have been prevented.
I recently have been thinking of my cousin. Also how my Great Grandpa fell and how scared I was that he might have died.
But most recently as today I have been thinking about my Grandparents and how they had to put their dog down.
My heart has been aching non stop for the past 3 months not only for me but for all of those effected and in pain from all the happenings.
I love all of you guys so much and I pray in the months to come there are brighter days For all of us, for those who are going through a rough time and for those who have already.
Deuteronomy 31:8
The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.
Lots of Love
