Veterans's Day, or should it be Thanksgiving?

Well I was going to take a few days off from writing, there is a segment on TV that asks "Are you addicted to the internet"? Had to seriously ask that question of myself. The answer? Yes, I think I am. It is just so hard to have ANY questions or thoughts and not find out more information or answers on the internet. What a wonderful invention.

Why should it be Thanksgiving? Well, last night we went to Monday Night Football to meet with some friends and have dinner. Andy received a telephone call from Alex saying he has been in an car accident. Some rear ended him, thank God no one was seriously injured, however we are taking both boys to the doctors at 12PM to have them checked out....

You know, I was in thought this morning, while getting the house picked up, you ever wonder how God feels, have a child. You love them unconditionally, raise them in your shadow, show them good and try to keep them from evil. They start thinking for themselves, making their own decision and stumbling along the way. You, as a parent, try to keep them on the right path, to have them make the best decisions for themselves. Then one day, after years and years, you realize that they have their own free will and do as they please. You, know as being a parent, realize that these decisions either will help them or hurt them. All you can do is hold your breath and pray for the wisdom you have tried to put into them will guide them. When it doesn't, you hold your breath again and pray that the mistakes do not hurt them too bad! What a lot of STRESS!!!! Really makes me see what God is under and what he has to go through for us!

Well, hopefully all is great with everyone and another wild ride!

Until then...
