Good Wednesday Morning!

Huh... added the title only to my blog... guess I really had nothing to say after all! LOL!

Things are ok, here at the Hatfield House. No major upheavals going on. Well, I guess there is one to speak of. My dear husband may be losing his job in the next couple of weeks, which means I have to go back into the work force. That's alright with me, but I will worry about Mom. She is so attached to my hip, that it's scary. I cannot even go to the grocery with out her asking, "Can I come with you?" I had to refuse her 2x yesterday so I could put in applications at a couple of facilities in the area. Dennis ended up having to give her a Xanax.

I had a long talk with God last night and told Him that since I am obviously terrible at reading what He wants me to do, that this one is completely and totally up to Him to show me where I should go for a job! He probably gets quite a guff at listening to me ramble on sometimes. I am so blessed to be a child of the King!

Been following "menu making" lately. It sure does make things easier around here! Granted, it's only been a short term venture lately, but I like making the children a healthy breakfast and knowing that they are eating well. And they even seem to be acting better! The 14 y/o acts human in the morning, and has even complimented me a few times! I like making bread by hand and knowing exactly what is going into my family's tummy's.

We are looking forward to homeschooling, and even if I do go back to work, I won't let that area go. It is important to me to give my children a good education, and I do not feel tha the ps are doing a decent job of that. Our 9 y/o son told me the other day that he was reading his "Bible Story" book in class and his teacher told him that he wasn't allowed to say "God or Jesus" in school. My rebuttal was that he may read his book if he chooses and to let anyone know that he is a Christian, and it is his right to say "God or Jesus" anywhere and anytime he pleases. I wanted to take him out of school that day, but dh told me to calm my German/Irish/Cherokee/Sioux temper (LOL!) and let him be for the last 10 days.

The 12 y/o came home yesterday to tell us of a boy that stole a Capri Sun from another young man at schol and the Police man that is always in their school, actually made the child cry infront of the class, then made fun of him while he was crying... granted, the child is a bully (I know him), but to have a grown man stand over him screaming at him is unacceptable, in my opinion.

She also told me that this boy's 11 y/o brother was removed from the lunch room because he was trying to put his hand up a girls shirt, and she was letting him (because they are supposedly "going out")! AAAARRRgggghhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What is this world coming to?

Thank You God, for 1 week of school left and my children will be home and safe, where they belong.

Oh! And in the city right next to us, a man raped and killed a 16 y/o girl yesterday. He was released from prison on a rape charge in 2005 (after serving time) and in January, was convicted of 3 child molestations, but was out on bond...now a little girl is dead.

Some days are just too much to take anymore......

God bless all of you!
