Have I Done Any Good in the World Today?
My children go to a charter school. We do not have free lunches at our school. You can buy hot meals but it is not through the state. A lot of things are donated to the school.
Anway, I have such a good boy. He came home yesterday from school and asked if he could bring six snacks to school the next day instead of his 3 snacks plus his lunch . He said his friend in class only gets a sandwich in his lunch box. When Andrew asked him why the boy told him that is all his family could afford.
I am so proud of him for thinking about the other person. Needless to say I packed him 3 extra snacks today and emailed his teacher to find out what is going on and what we can do to help.

Mitt Romney Dismisses Harry Reid Mormonism Comments: 'He Can Say Whatever He'd Like'
WASHINGTON -- GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney didn't
have much to say Tuesday to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's (D-Nev.)
statement that he "sullied" Mormonism, the religion they both practice.
"I really don't have any response to Harry," Romney told Fox News' Carl Cameron. "You know, he can say whatever he'd like to say. This isn't a race about Harry Reid."
Reid, who has criticized Romney throughout his candidacy, said this week he agreed with a Mormon blogger who felt the candidate badly portrayed The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. "I agree with him," Reid said. "[Romney's] coming to a state where there are a lot of members of the LDS Church ... They understand that he is not the face of Mormonism."
Romney's vice presidential pick, Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), came to Romney's defense in the same Fox News interview.
"If there’s one thing we’ve learned about this we always get over-the-top comments from Harry Reid," Ryan said. "We’re used to hearing things like this coming from Harry. These kinds of comments have no place in it."

The Chosen by Chaim Potok
The first book I read was Anne of Green Gables. My aunt bought me this book when I was young. She bought it because she had red hair and thought I would love it because I have red hair. I never read it. I finally did last year and I LOVED it! It is the cutest funniest book I have ever read.
The second book I read was Little Britches. If I remember right I takes place in Colorado. A family moves there an lives on a farm/ranch and live off the land. VERY GOOD BOOK.
Next I listened to the audio of The Chosen by Chaim Potok. Another VERY GOOD book.
This book takes place in Brooklyn, NY. Set back in the 1940's. The main characters are about two young boys who meet at a baseball game which they are playing against each other. Two Jewish boys: Rueven Orthodox and Danny is Hasid whose father is Rabi of a great Hasidic dynasty.
What I took out of the book: The book is basically about two boys that come from two different but a little of the same walks of life and their relationships with their fathers and the two different ways the fathers raised their boys. It was also interesting to note as the two became best friends how each of their fathers influenced the friends.
A second main point was the decisions these boys faced as they group up as to what they wanted to do with their lives. Very clean interesting book.
I think the fourth book I will be reading is
What's nice is some of these classics are free or next to nothing on Amazon Kindle.

Who I Am
Who I am...
I am a wife, a mom, a daughter, and a friend. I am proud to be a mom. I love my husband and my children passionately and I am a stay at home mom and I LOVE it!! I am easy going. I am generally a happy person. I believe in God. I am grateful for the atonement, because I have certainly needed it throughout my life. I am grateful for a a church that excepts imperfect people, because I am so far from being perfect. I believe that we are here on this earth to be tested and tried and to learn and grow. I believe families can be together forever. I believe marriage should be between a husband and wife. I am conservative. Sometimes I like to listen to Rush, Hannity, and Beck. I have strong beliefs and I know others have different beliefs and that is OK. I don't like confrontation, but sometimes I say things before I think. Thank goodness for forgiving family and friends. I come from a family of farmers. My father was a pig farmer. I eat meat, some of my family hunts and they eat the meat they hunt. I have friends that don't believe the same way or live the same way I do and that is their choice but I don't think they are bad people. I am grateful that we all have freedom to choose how and what we believe. Sometimes I will post things that other people disagree with, in fact I have family that disagree with my thoughts too, but we still love each other and get along and like each other despite our thoughts. I am grateful and proud to be an American. Thank goodness for freedom of speech and freedom to go to church where and when we want to. I thank my Heavenly Father every Sunday that my family lives in a land where we are able to worship where we want. I try to read my scriptures and pray daily. I am trying to teach my children to do the same. I am trying to raise them with conservative values. I want them to grow up reading the Book of Mormon, The Bible and the other standard works. I want them to read other good books, and to read the classics. I want them to grow up learning about our past so they know how to live in the future.
I try to believe in the best of others. I don't like gossip. I try not to gossip and tend to stay away from people who do. I try not to judge, I don't have that right. We all make mistakes, none of us are perfect. We are all just trying to live the best life each of us knows how.
These are just my ramblings, This is who I am.

Glenn Beck on Mitt Romney
Glenn Beck talks about Mitt Romney
http://www.video.theblaze.com/media/video.jsp?content_id=24705413&topic_id&v=3
When I watched the RNC a few weeks back as I watched Mitt Romney I kept saying. He is just a good man. You can see it in his face and in his voice as he talks. He cares. I loved this clip of Glenn Beck as he talked about him. And he is sayng what I have been saying all along. But Glenn has stories to back it up. Click on the link above. I wish I could hear the other stories. Unfortunately I am not signed up for the BLAZE TV. Lucky you if you are. :0)
