This fall I’m excited to be homeschooling my two preschoolers. A few months ago I met with some homeschooling parents from my church and decided to dive in myself. Several years ago I had considered homeschooling our oldest when we moved from Oklahoma, but shortly after we closed on our new house I discovered I [...]

This year, I’m starting a new tradition with my family. We have fields of yellow buttercups on our property and our family is going to go out and pick baskets full to take with us to our local cemetery. And we are going to decorate the graves of those who died for our freedom.

I just signed a petition supporting an emergency suspension of California’s outrageous court ruling that sanctioned homosexual marriage. Here’s a Press Release that was issued last week concerning this emergency suspension: Press Release May 16, 2008 Liberty Counsel Will Ask California Court To Stay Opinion Until Californians Vote On Marriage San Francisco, CA – Liberty [...]

A ruling was made yesterday on an appeal to overturn Virginia’s ban on partial-birth abortion again. Evidently, because the doctor performing a legal abortion might be held accountable for accidentally performing a partial-birth abortion, this was enough to sway two out of three judges to overturn the VA partial-birth abortion ban. At first I found [...]

Last week I turned the big 3-9 for the first time in my life (LOL), and I have to be honest I certainly don’t feel “almost 40″. I felt older when I was pregnant with my four-year-old. Amazingly 3 pregnancies later and I’ve got more energy than I’ve had in the last 8 years! Well, [...]

Mike Huckabee launched a new website today called Huck*PAC with the tagline: Life. Liberty. Pursuit of Happiness. The following excerpt lays out the mission of this new political action committee: “Huck PAC is founded on the principles that make America great: Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. Our Republican Party embodies these ideas and [...]

I thought Mike Huckabee was the right man to preside in the Oval Office (and I still do) for many reasons. One in particular was his way of “reaching across the aisle” and connecting with those who share views of opposition. Unlike some politicians who are willing to compromise moral principles to make political choices, [...]
