Sometimes, not all women are fit to be moms, they are brutal, junkies, or evil.

Quite true, but most of us have a mom somewhere between the extremes, although the average has shifted somewhat, it has not shifted as far as one is led to believe.

This is a magnificent accounting of not only our rich history as a Country but also our family values which many of us cherish.

Thank you, for a piece of literature that left my laptop display a little fuzzy this Sunday morning.

I too hold all those things you mention close to my heart.

Onward, Christian soldiers!

I too, have been left moved by this piece. In 1973, my father passed, followed a year later by his dad, and all of a sudden I, at 17 years old, was the man of the family, my older brother having left for the Air Force.

Bless my now departed mom and grandmom.

Great, I miss my mom. Update on granddaughter #2, the doctor wants to do his C-section before June 1. 3 weeks to go, and the pregnancy hormones have been crazy the whole time.

“Knowing what makes America “exceptional” is the first step toward falling in love with America. And a person who falls in love with America falls in love with liberty. Understanding the foundations of our country creates patriots for life.” That’s so important.
