I saw this on the O'Reilly Factor. It would be great if some of the radically pro-choice Obama disciples would get this through their ultra thick liberal heads.
Big news #1:Last night as I tucked in Benjamin he said he needed to whisper something in my ear. He had an expression on his face like he was trying to not to cry. I thought "Oh no, what has he done this time???" He whispered, "I think I need to be saved." Oh, my heart was about to burst!! I asked him a few questions to make sure he understood everything. (he did) We talked for a little while and I was very impressed to hear his answers to my questions. Mark had to work night shift last night so he did not get to be there, but I called him and told him. He was as happy as I was. Benjamin wants to go ahead and be baptized this weekend, but we are most likely going to wait because of Big News #2.
Big news #2: My niece is finally here! I do not have any pictures yet that I can post, but I promise to post some soon. Amanda went to the hospital about 4:00 am Wednesday morning, but they sent her home. She was not progressed enough. But she went again last night around 7:00. And little Miss Anna Claire Chambers was born at 4:00 am this morning. I have not been able to go see her yet. The boys have had a bit of a virus causing them to have snotty noses and sore throats, so I have to stay away until we are sure that none of us are contagious. I thought we were over it, but Benjamin has been sneezing again today and saying that he does not feel good. Anyhoo, she is here, she is healthy and her mommy and daddy are very happy.
ps- We have been doing some really cool things in homeschool.I promise to post something again soon.
I have been tagged by Jenny at Two Steps Away From From the Funny Farm. She tagged me with a photo tag. The rules are pretty simple. Go to your picture files. Click on folder number four. Click on the fourth picture. Post it. It's as simple as that. 
I was really scared. We have a tendency to take really bad pictures and then forget to delete them. This, was fortunately, our youth group heading out on a trip to visit orphans from Ukraine.
So now I tag Amanda, Annmarie, Rthling, and Valerie.
This morning when breakfast was finished cooking and the plates were fixed I called for the boys to come to the kitchen. Okay, I have to admit, what I said was, "Girley men, come here. Your breakfast is ready!" Benjamin and Nathaniel came promptly to get their plates. Samuel just sat in the living room on the love seat. When I asked why he did not come get his plate he responded, "I thought you were just talking to Benjamin." Guess we know how he feels about his older brother.
We started learning about the American Revolution yesterday. Actually we read some about the French and Indian War. And about the huge debt that needed to be payed off as a result of said war. We did not really go into a whole lot of details, just that the king thought that the colonists should be the ones to pay the debt. This morning after Bible study and Catechism, before handing them their papers I announced that homeschooling is very expensive. Since they are the ones who are benefiting from homeschooling, from now on they would pay taxes to pay off their homeschooling debts. Today there is a tax of one cent per piece of paper. And a tax of one cent per each time that a pencil is used. Nathaniel has decided that he is only going to use the backs of papers today. Benjamin is all into the idea. He is suggesting other things that could be taxed. Samuel is not too thrilled, but he is not really putting up much of a fuss. How funny, I have a Tory, a Patriot, and a Neutral. Let the revolution begin!!!!
