How to Get Bethany to Eat Peas
Last night, Bethany decided that she did not like peas. After I put a pea in her mouth, she would scream until it fell out. Nate wanted to catch the moment on the camera, but as soon as Bethany saw it, she stopped crying.
So Nate set the camera on the table as a "hidden camera" and I tried another pea.
Great stuff! This is for all of you who think Bethany never cries. : )
A New Toy
Last weekend we realized that Bethany was ready for her stand-up toys. Jacob and Naomi were on the job!
Another stand-up toy Bethany loves.

Gideon's Torch
"...A Christian must be a sign of contradiction to the world...A Christian is one who all his life chooses between good and evil, lies and truth, love and hatred, God and Satan...Today more than ever there is a need for our light to shine, so that through us, through our deeds, through our choices, people can see the Father who is in Heaven." Jerzy Popieluszko, 1947-1884
After an abortion doctor is killed, the new President of the US decides that he must crack down on the "terrorist anti-abortionists" that are responsible. But since they cannot find the actual killer, they make the entire pro-life movement the brunt of harassment and arrests. Far-fetched, right? Just look at this quote featured in the Patriot Post's Chronicle today:
"Is [Health and Human Services nominee Kathleen Sebelius] gonna get through the, the terrorism of the, of the anti-abortion people?" --MSNBC's Chris Matthews
Let our light shine and let our choices show the Father who is in Heaven!
