Hope you sick ones feel better.

I just got some great news! I about fell outta my chair. I have mentioned that I do daycare in my home. I have been doing this for 6 yrs now. I gave up teaching school when I had children so I could raise them and not have someone else do it. Anyway. I was awarded $1000 from the empowerment grant! I can buy anything for the daycare I want with the money. I'm so excited

I'll be shopping online. I've never gotten any money from the state but since I passed all my certification for the past years it paid off.

Take care Queen. Best wishes on getting daughter healthy again.

Feel better those of you under the weather!

Purr!

Anyone seen Algopurple lately? Yoohoo! Where'd ya go? Hope all is well!

We have winter again here and I find it too depressing!

Congrats Chix!!!! That's awesome! Enjoy shopping!

Wonder if they would give an empowerment grant to chicken owners...

Thanks for the advise skand and karanleaf.... we do talk to our kids about EVERYTHING too. I just know what I was doing as a teenager and dont want them to be doing those things, atleast yet! But I had a mom that didnt care what I did or where I went. I do the best I can and then put the rest in Gods hands.

Queen Scoot - I know I dont know you but I pray things get better soon for your family with your daughter.

My mom forgot to talk first, to see if there was a need to search. She didnt let me know to come talk to her. When I did, she turned it back to it being my fault, I had horrible friends, etc.

Yop, mine too...and when she did talk it was all about her. All her all the time. She's still that way bless her heart. What a sad lonely way to live.

Jen, we will be doing that also. What program do you use for that? My oldest keeps dancing around asking me about using myspace, and I told him nope, not until you're older. But it's just a few years away I believe.

oh! and you're welcome

My parents would never think of snooping into my private matters, it just wasn't done the way they were brought up. There were certain things that just weren't discussed in polite circles according to my mother and with my father everything was black and white.

It wasn't until we were mostly grown that we were able to discuss things with my father, and just danced around other subjects with my mother.

I have a standard policy that all my nephews and nieces know that they can come talk to me, or call me or write to me about anything. I will not judge them, I will counsel them if I feel it is necessary, and will definitely get them whatever help they need if they are in trouble. I treat my friends the same way, I take people at face value until I am proven wrong.

Just remember, that in the case of children, you are the adult/parent. Not their bestest friend ever, certain ground rules have to be in place. And children need to be taught the consequences of their own actions. Sometimes it is a painful lesson to learn for both the parents and the child.

As to kids being on MySpace, FaceBook or any of those other things like that, that is something I feel needs to be closely monitored by parents. Too many pervs are out there looking to prey on susceptible children, and to many kids have used those things to bully and harass other children without restraint. In some cases it has even resulted in suicide or suicide attempts.

Okay, back to hooking now, end of my homily.

FrChuckW yeah I grew up in a good Norwegian family. Every thing is good on the outside, no matter what is going on. Nice and polite and dont let anyone know whats really going on. At least I am not that way, so much, now.

Algo last I heard from her on the Babyghan thread said she would be checking off and on with her brothers computer... So I don't remember if she has computer troubles or what but I don't think it was any serious situation just tech type thing.

Hey everyone!! I was stuck back on page 73 forever and just now got caught up on the reading. Got hooked on the Twilight books (4) and couldn't put them down untill they were all read. Got me in trouble with my husband cuz the house work was starting to get way backed up.

Thanks Rocket for asking bout me.

Scoot sorry to hear bout your daughter. Will mention her at prayer meeting.

Wish I had time to comment on all the other things yall were all taking bout but no more time. Got to get back to cooking supper and working on my shapes later. Hope to be back here soon. Miss talking with all yall.
