Foster Care

Haven't posted anything in the last few days and wanted to tell why. Ken and I are foster parents and just received a bouncy, baby girl on Friday! She is just over 5 months old, and we have had little sleep, listening for every noise she makes.

So, please keep us in your prayers as we have a 6-year-old boy, as well. He does a good job entertaining the baby... she just loves watching him dance. So, while he dances, Ken and I are doing the diaper dance, if you know what I mean!

Dubai, again! Repeat That?

OK... while we're at it... what about the Washington Post article today about the Bush administration allowing a Dubai-owned company to possibly take over some companies in Connecticut and Georgia that make precision engine parts for our military's airplanes and tanks?

That's not all... and even though I seem to value Israel's security more than they do, I value America's more. Israel is planning on buying a software company in Maryland that does business for our Defense Department.

Must I keep harping on our national security? I thought my government was at the helm on that and not steering us towards an iceberg. We just don't have any more undiscovered lands for which to set sail if we come undone here.

Be clear here with me. I love my country. It is the best in the whole world, bar none. I want to keep it that way. I'm not an isolationist, we must buy and trade with the world. Most importantly, I want good, common sense security measures from my leaders.. for our borders. The Democrats don't have the answers, they try to undermine our country ALL the time. I look to the Republicans, of which I am one, since they are the ones with any idea out there. We must use our common sense and listen to the voices who are saying that we have enemies who want to see us flounder, to see us fail. Take heed, be watchful.

I am hoping my Congresswoman, Sue Myrick, will continue in her passion of keeping this country safe, along with the rest of her colleagues in the U.S. Congress. You "People" of the people, please say, "No" to these deals if they are a potential threat to us... these companies aren't makers of toilet paper or sock puppets.

We must as a nation remain true to Godly rules and order. Our nation is selling our soul to those who want to devour it. Let's not go there, let's be wise.
