So, I commented on a Facebook post giving what I thought was a rather insightful analysis of the difference between how the two opposing sides saw the Chick-Fil-A events yesterday. In particular, I talked about how each side was not communicating, because they did not seem to understand the other sides's concerns. And I got…

First, if any of those of you who donated money yesterday so we could go to Chick-Fil-A are reading this: thank you, thank you, thank you.   Second…I seem to be terrible at writing thank you notes…the physical kind. I have some around from three years ago that have never been delivered, and many others…

Last night, I was chatting with the princess about movies she had seen, when she asked if stars were really the spirits of the dead. She was serious. I had tried to explain about stars once before. This time I had John do it with videos from the internet. Still not sure she understood most…

I am on vacation this week. Instead of writing, I am praying and reading books…though today I played LIFE with the talking boys.   The Cherubim asked to go back to Boy Scouts this morning. I had to tell him we couldn't do that. He just walked by carrying for large dinosaurs and smiling.

From All Girls Allowed…some good news:   Dear Friend,   Big news! This week, the One-Child Policy saw two major challenges in wake of public outrage over Feng Jianmei's forced abortion. We are praying that this signals the end of the One-Child Policy! You can do something about it, too.   Yesterday, the European Parliament…
