Birthday

Some years back, right around this time- I was sitting in the hospital waiting to deliver what would be the most beautiful baby the hospital had ever seen. Really, she was. And even now- she is the most beautiful girl the world has ever seen. Smart, kind and as sweet as one could ever imagine.
It was that first moment when I became a mother that I knew- my whole world had just changed. I suddenly had someone that was more important, and that required all the love I could possibly give. She was my first, followed by two sweet boys. And although I love them equally, she was the one that made me a mother. Everyday as she grows, she becomes more incredible, more special, and my challenge to always protect her becomes more difficult. Only 8 years old now- she has years ahead of her which are sure to test me. I know that with her comes new issues to face, and new discoveries to be made, and that beyond all, there is the challenge to shield her, protect her, and raise her well. The task is not always easy, but I can not fail her. So every day, as I watch her grow I hold dear those easy moments and hold strong in the difficult ones.
In the end, for a commitment I made to be her mother, my reward will be all of those moments that I've been able to have with her. To see her grow into a great young woman, and to know that I honored my deal to raise her well, and to always love her- that will be the gift I receive in return.
Happy birthday Princess.

Guided by practical experience and not theory, especially in medicine Kennedy hate crimes rider may doom Hatch's sex offender bill By Robert Gehrke The Salt Lake Tribune WASHINGTON - A fight over federal hate crimes legislation could torpedo Sen. Orrin Hatch's push to strengthen the nation's sex-offender registries and clamp down on sex crimes. The Senate Judiciary Committee gave quick, unanimous approval to Hatch's bill Thursday, clearing its way for consideration by the full Senate. But Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., said he plans to try to attach language to a bill that would require tougher sentences, provide federal assistance and offer grants to prosecute hate crimes - those motivated by hatred for a race, religion, gender or sexual orientation.

Boyfriends...

I sometimes wonder if certain men have some sort of animal DNA breed into them. The type of DNA or whatever it is that makes animals ritually preform certain actions. Like lions, when a male lion takes over a pride it'll often kill the offspring of the previous male, before mating with the female lions and creating cubs of it's own. I only wonder this, because it seems like there are an overwhelming number of men out there that end up killing the children of their girlfriends, not all of them do- but on a case by case comparison between girlfriends killing their boyfriends offspring and boyfriends doing it, it just seems that it's a lot more common amoung men. NOT THAT ALL OF THEM DO THIS... there are some great boyfriends/stepfathers out there that actually take care of kids as if they are their own... but then we have cases like Christopher Thunborg and Kashon Scott. Thunborg was babysitting his girlfriend's 11 month of baby in March when police say he caused ...
