been thinking about family today
this is a comment I made in Jenny's journal today when I saw her holding her nephew soon to be my nephew too.
and about my child that didn't get a chance to be born, she would be almost three months old today.
Also about my backwards views about a mothers role.
"dawwww. you look so perfect like this.
I'm working on two of your three pre-requisists for rug rats.
Mid-February we will have a phone prayer in memory for our baby angel.
In the distant future all our family will get a chance to meet each other and find out what they were doing while we were living down here and swap stories.
I know that you'll step up and be a fantastic mother to our kiddies when the time comes, you've already shown a knack for the motherly roll with baby Talan.
Now don't brand me a conservative by what I'm about to say, because I think I'm a fairly liberal person but this will sound like old fashioned thinking, so old fashion maybe it'll sound progressive. I think that the mother role is the single most important task that a woman can aspire to. I think that raising children and building a good family is something that's been over looked by the main stream and isn't generally given the attention that it deserves.
I think that attention to the family is important very important, when you deside to have a family, you do need to devote almost all of your attention to it.
I'm not saying that a woman should be barefoot and pregnant that's just backwards thinking, I think flip-flops are fine. ;3 "
