For some time I have wanted to take a minute and write down the wonderful, and sometimes hysterical, things I've heard kids say. I even set up this blog several months ago, but never finished designing it or even posted.
As I think about what the future holds for my children and yours, after the results of our election ~I'm really sad. Beyond the moon that we seem to have broken the racial barrier at long last, yet saddened nevertheless. Our children are going to be brought up in a world were it's OK to kill babies for no good reason....even if the reason seems "good". We should not have to explain to our babies what abortion is. They will live to see the breakdown of the Family as God designed it. Having to tell our babies about same~sex marriage is not my idea of great dinner table discussion either. Talking about these things has to happen.....I know that. I just wish I didn't have to.
OK~this blog is about the things kids say, so here's what I heard my 14 (yes, she's stilll a kid) say last night while watching the results come in....... "Why would anyone want to vote for Obama?! Doesn't he believe in gay marriage and abortion?!" Yes my love, but so does most of the world we live in.
Now, more than ever, our responsibility as parents is to "Train up a child in the way he should go......." Pray for our new President~he needs it more than he realizes it~and we're commanded by God to do so. Barack Obama may be our new President, but Jesus is still our King!
