Snowflakes Frozen Embryos
Snowflakes Frozen Embryos
If there's any question in anyone's mind about the future of Embyonic research, these baby faces should clear things up. Frozen embryo's are people!

Memorial Day Honor
This from frc.org:
Honoring the American Soldier
With Memorial Day approaching I recall the words of a fellow veteran of the United States Marine Corps, Father Dennis Edward O'Brien. This U.S. Navy chaplain, who served on Guadalcanal during WWII, wrote:
Father O'Brien's words are perhaps the truest words ever spoken on war. No sane person ever asks for war. However, it takes true heroes to defend freedom when wars occur.
The holiday this weekend is much more than a long weekend to enjoy picnics and friends. Memorial Day is an important reminder of those who gave their lives for their country.
One of the most famous speeches in American history was given by Abraham Lincoln in 1863 honoring the over 51,000 Confederate and Union soldiers who were wounded, missing, or dead at the Battle of Gettysburg.
Lincoln said,
May God bless all who have worn our nation's uniform, both living and dead.

"It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us the freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us the freedom of speech.
It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who gives us the freedom to demonstrate.
It is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves beneath the flag, and whose coffin is draped by the flag, who allows the protester to burn the flag."

Lincoln said,
"It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve these dead shall not have died in vain; that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."
May God bless all who have worn our nation's uniform, both living and dead.
Family Trip
Wednesday, my mom, Josiah , and I took my grandmother, Mommo, to Walmart.
She did so well. We just put her walker in the shopping cart, and she pushed the cart. When we got to the pharmacy to get a toothbrush, we rested on the bench and talked. She was so happy to get out for a while. I hope she's not too sore from all the exercise.
Virgil got a job with the school bus garage as a substitute bus driver. He starts today driving a full-size bus to pick up some kids and take them home. He'll be doing a lot of weekend driving, taking deaf kids to school in Columbus on Sunday and picking them up on Friday.
Josiah is spending a few days with my mom. I hope he's not driving her crazy. He likes for people to do things with him and feed him constantly.
A friend who hunts on our property brought his small tractor and plowed our garden for us. I gave him a quart of honey.
Virgil has some work to do on his dumptruck and some gravel deliveries to make when he gets back from the bus trip.

Beautiful day
We had a great weekend. Josiah and I went to the farmers market Saturday to pick up some lettuce, and then on to meet Amber at the flea market. We looked around a while at the antiques, and then I took Kylie back home with me.
Yesterday, we went to Sunday School. Kylie sat on my lap while I played the piano.
For Sunday evening service, I brought my digital camera and Kylie took some pictures. Then she fell asleep on my lap while I played the piano. She loves to sing Jesus Loves Me, but I can't get her to sing at church, yet. She'll be three the end of August.
As I type, our Walker Coonhound is barking. Rosey has a coon treed in her doghouse. Yes, you heard right. The dog house is tall enough for Josi to walk into. It has an automatic dog feeder inside it. I guess the coon came in for a snack, and Rosey treed it.
