have you been educating your female children early that they will not have the earning power of their brothers and their fathers to whom they look up to and dream of following in their footsteps later in life? perhaps maybe its time to start? Discrimination has a big umbrella. how will you expla... Comment - Like

Discrimination is alive and well. We pass it down to our next generation of children by neglecting to educate them to the reality of the diversity of our world. Today it is estimated that 1 in 10 people are gay. Regardless of whether or not you are homophobic, or find that your religious belie... Comment - Like

I was in a queer mood, thinking myself very old: but now I am a woman again - as I always am when I write.

One of the things which I have discovered during my journey is that sex is ummm, well, different.

I go from being a mother of two little beauties to four. The mothers in the neighborhood have collectively decided to put me in charge of their children's religious upbringing. In fact, at my baptism, I only invited these four lovelies to witness. One had never been in a church before and fell i... Comment - Like

It is so wonderful that Boise has coffee houses and other venues where young people can be included in the most remarkable local talents that we have to offer. Friday night at Buzz, Hannah, Emma and I went for dinner and the kids got to meet and listen to Blaze and Kelly. Hannah requested her favori... Comment - Like

This is Amos... the first time I picked him up, he was like a slinky. I swear he is so big that his hind end was still on the floor when I had stood back up with his top part. His purrrrr is not unlike a motorcycle. If my bedroom door is open he decides when I wake up on the weekends. He climbs ... Comment - Like

My beautiful 11 year old daughter has a quote on her wall that says,
"Our differences make us the same."
She may be one of the most insightful, beautiful, intelligent souls I have ever known. May the hard edges of life never shave away her inherent understanding of the reality of life. Comment - Like

I was "sorta" raised LDS. I don't recall Lent being something that we did or even talked about. We did have Fast Sunday once a month. Maybe that was our Lent. I really don't know.
I really don't know much about religious practices or the reasons behind them. Since becoming a member of ... Comment - Like

Sudden spring,
small and shy,
peeking out of her winter clothing.
Fickle with her promise,
I believe her anyway as she hides again in her winter clothing.

Driving in the car this morning,
"Mom?" says Hannah
"Yeah sweets?" I say...
"At night, when you settle down to sleep do you ever hear a voice in the quiet telling you "goodnight"?" she asks...
"Actually yes, I have heard that. Why?" I asked her.

Photoshop won't work so I decided to uninstall it. Digital Image won't work so I decided to uninstall it too. Each time I attempt to uninstall either one of them it hits an error and rolls back the uninstallation. So I can't use them, and I can't get rid of them and I am close to... Comment - Like

I am in pain everyday of my life. Most times it works itself out and you wouldn't notice anything wrong with me. I am learning to hide the constant ache. A couple of Excedrine and I am good to go. But when spring comes, when finally I want to be out moving around more, my body betrays me. Any we... Comment - Like
