Friday Letters

Dear Mom,
I wish I could understand you when you talk a little better. I know the medicine keeps you groggy. I try to call at different times, to catch you when the medicine has worn off alittle but not having much luck. Working on trying to get you a lift chair so you won't fall as much when you get up. I miss you. Hope to see you soon. 

Dear Ervin, 
Good luck on getting your new place. I hope you find it on Saturday. I miss you and love you. 

Dear Laci,
I loved talking to you the other day. I am sorry you were not here for Halloween. I know its your favorite time of year. But happy, happy, happy, (Phil's saying on ducks), :) that you will be home for Christmas. Maybe next year you and Kisha can come to Texas. But happy I am going to be in Florida with you both this Christmas. 

Dear Kisha, 
Good Luck with your housewife blog. I know you will work it out one way or the other. I can't wait to see you guys at Christmas. Give Jackson a big hug for me.

Dear Brittany,
Tomorrow is your birthday. I hope its the best ever. I love you. Call me sometime. 

Dear House,
Please sell this time. We have made an offer on another house so you need to be gone. 

Dear New House,
Don is so so excited to move in to you. I don't think I have ever seen him so excited about anything. He loves you so I hope it all works out. I can't wait to get in there to get you all decorated up. 

Dear Johnny,
It was great hearing your voice the other day. I really miss talking to you. 

Dear Meagan,
Woo-hoo! A few more days and Jaxson will enter this great big world. Can't wait to get my hands on him. Don and I got our whooping cough shots. My arm is really sore from it. But worth it. Come on Jaxson. You are being greatly anticipated. 

Dear Don,
Woo-Hoo! House is sold and we have  new one on the way. Can't wait to get moved in and start fixing it up the way we want it. Love that it has a heated pool. And love the infinity spa. Thats really cool. Now for all to go well with both houses and get them both to closing. :)

Dear Aunt Faye,
I hope all goes well on your move to Brenda's.  I hope you are happy there. I will come and see you as soon as I get to Indiana. I love you very much. Good Luck.

Dear Dynasty Ducks,
Thank you for all the laughs every night. I record all your shows. Thank you Phil for telling them if you have to give up your God and your guns on the show, there would be no show. So happy, happy, happy, they signed you on for another season. Hopefully many more to come. Cant wait to get to Monroe and eat in your new restaurant. You guys are the best.

Once again, it's time to celebrate Columbus Day. Yet, the stunning truth is: If Christopher Columbus were alive today, he would be put on trial for crimes against humanity.Columbus' reign of terror, as documented by noted historians, was so bloody, his legacy so unspeakably cruel, that Columbus makes a modern villain like Saddam Hussein look like a pale codfish.

Question: Why do we honor a man who, if he were alive today, would almost certainly be sitting on Death Row awaiting execution?

Linked to Sexual Trafficking!

Time to shut down the porn industry for good

September 26, 2013 (PornHarms) - The porn industry just ended its self-imposed shut down, but one must wonder why. The industry stopped shooting films after four porn stars tested positive for HIV in the last month. However, HIV is only one of many health problems common to the industry. Others include chlamydia, gonorrhea, and herpes. And though these infections often leave permanent damage, they are but a small part of the devastation pornography brings.

Harms from pornography include increased demand for sexual trafficking, increased violence against women, 

Westgate Mall Shooting/Very Graphic!

This is why we can't let them take our guns. If these people had guns, there may not be so many dead and injured. So sad.

DC Final Day,shootings, Holocaust, Good-Byes!

Monday Sept 16^th, I woke up early but wanted to let her sleep. I got dressed and went downstairs and had breakfast. While there I saw the news where some nut was on the

Navy Base shooting people. They shut the planes at the airport down, so we were concerned about Laci’s flight. They were shut down for 2 hours but both our flights were running on schedule. I went back up to the room, jumped on 

My Never Ending Love Letter To My Daughter, Laci!

Laci,  this letter is long and pretty random. I just wrote things as I thought of them. This is in no certain order. Just memories I always want you to have. I am sure by the time I hit send, I will remember something else that I should have said, and I am sure I will continue to think of things I should have said so this letter will never truly

DC Day 3, Mall, President's, Lost, Found, Cabs & Ducks!

Sunday, Sept 15^th. We got up and got ready. We headed to the Metro

to go to the mall. We were going to just run in and grab a couple things and back out. But when we got there, it was a 4 story mall.

It would have just been wrong not to check it out. We went

DC 2nd Day, Metro, Food Trucks, Museums, Ducks

Our second day in Washington, DC began by getting ready and finding the Metro.

DC, 1st Day, IJM, Birthday, Chocolate!

Our first day in Washington, DC.  I flew in and took a taxi straight to IJM headquarters.

 Laci said they told her if I wanted to come to  their last get together, I was welcome. I was so thankful I was able to get off the plane and get to her in time. 

Friday Letters!

Dear Laci,
I loved our time in Washington together. It ended way too soon. I am so happy that you are safely in Ireland and are loving it. I know there is so much to take in but you can do it. Good Luck. I am so happy that we are able to facebook at night. I loved Skyping with you. Lets try and do that more often. :).

Dear Kisha,
I love you and miss our conversations. Hope we can get some started back up soon. I am in love with your little off colored kitten. Are you selling him or her? Is it a male or female? I am very interested in that one. :)

Dear Paco,
If you followed Laci to Ireland, you need to come back to the states right away. She is going to have enough trouble with the Leprechauns messing with her. She really doesn't need you there right now.

Dear Don,
So glad to be back home and heading back to the gym with you.  I love getting back in shape. 

Dear Hours in the day,
Slow down. You move way too fast.

Dear Duck Dynasty,
I can't believe how much I am enjoying your show. But I am. Keep up the great work.

Friday Letters!

Dear Precious Heavenly Father, 

I lift up my daughter to Your throne of grace. Father, please protect Laci in her travels. May she arrive safely at her destination in Ireland. May the IJM staff find favor with her. Please surround her with Your peace and Your amazing love. Give her a spirit of calm. For we know that You want the best for her. Blessed be the Name of our Lord, Jesus. We thank You and we praise You. In Jesus mighty name, Amen. 

Dear Laci,
I am so happy to be in Washington with you this weekend. It is going to be so hard to let you go on Monday.  I hope you have an amazing time in Ireland. Hurry back for Christmas break. I will meet you in Florida. I love you and I am only a phone call away. If you need anything, call me. If you don't need anything, call me. When you are lonely, call me. When you think I might be lonely, call me. I think you are getting what I am saying. CALL ME......I love you. So much. Be super safe. 

Dear Kisha,
I hope you, Scott and Jackson can make it to Florida this Christmas. I would love to be able to spent Christmas with both my girls. That would be awesome. I miss you and I miss our late night talks. I know you are going to bed a lot earlier because of Jackson's school hours, but I do miss you very much. Thank you for helping Laci get her new blog set up. It looks great. I love you. CALL me!!! 

Dear Jackson,
We miss you. Don says you never call him anymore. Hello, or me. I love hearing your sweet voice on the phone. Call when you get time. I know you are a busy boy. I hope to see you at Christmas. I love you. 

Dear Brittany,
I miss you, sweetheart. I don't know when I am going to be able to get back to Indiana to see you. I hope school is going well for you this year. We will talk this week. I love you. 

Dear Don,
Enjoy your weekend. Be safe on the bike. Please try to brush Sammy once or twice. Enjoy the gym. I will see you on Monday. I love you.

Dear Sammy,
I will miss you this weekend. I think you will be better staying with Don instead of running around Washington with Laci and I. Enjoy the motorcycle, but be safe. Be a sweet baby while I am gone. I will see you Monday at the airport. I love you very much .

Dear Carrie, 

Thank you so much for taking such awesome care of my daughter during her time in Washington. You are so much appreciated. Come to Texas and visit anytime. It was so nice meeting you. 

Dear Kelsee, 

It was so great meeting you. Have a safe trip to England. Good luck with your internship. I know you will be great our  there.  Stay safe. 

Dear Pilot of Laci's plane,
Please get lots of rest and stay alert flying her to Ireland. Please keep you and the plane safe. Our prayers are with you. 

Dear Belfast,
Please, please, please keep my daughter safe during her time with you. Let her learn all the things she needs to learn, but also to enjoy her time off and see the sights.
