Hello all,
I must apologize for the big absences the last few months…. Recent situations have made me have a bad taste in my mouth towards blogging… I might share more later… that post would take more thought than I’m able to give at this moment and be filled with anger that needs to calm a bit before putting it to paper:)
But I did want to write and say Happy Holidays and wish everyone an insanely amazing New Year!! I am so grateful for the sweet responses I have received from so many of you and am so appreciative of everyone who cares enough to actually read this momma’s random crap and rants!
Let’s see…on my mind today….
The Duggars.
I don’t know how you guys feel about this family but I adore them! I love that people outwardly and loudly oppose their decisions and they could care less. They keep living what they believe to be true no matter what….you gotta respect that:) How they keep their home so clean with that many people living in it is beyond me. I barely can keep up with laundry for me alone, not even counting the man and kids! I love that they live in the middle of nowhere. I love that their entertainment is not TV but each other. I love that they cook all their meals as a family and rarely eat out. I love that they don’t have debt, they don’t spend money unless they have it in hand. The children are respectful and the parents run the household with a calm voice! It seems impossible but they do it! As crazy a life as it seems I think we all could learn a lot from the Duggars:)
I was online today and came across an audio ‘letter’ to their recently stillborn baby Jubilee. People are going crazy that they have posted pictures of this child. I don’t think the public realizes that this happens all the time. There are photographers for most hospitals that come in and photograph stillborns with their families. It is done in a very tasteful manner and the pictures are beautiful. If a family chooses to share these photos, how is that wrong? It should be a families choice how they chose to grieve a loss and it should be no ones business to judge! Sure people can have opinions, but to go so far as to find them online and write horrible things to them is ridiculous.
I found the pictures to be beautifully done….
