I'm sad today.  

My friend Afton posted this movie on her blog last night,  and it has disturbed me ever since.  I don't know if it is because I have two babies now and I can't imagine them,  or any other helpless little being suffering,  or just because I can't imagine how any person could think this was ok..  

I'm sad for these babies who never get a chance at life,  and I'm sad for the world that my little ones are going to grow up in.

I believe in a right to choose,  free agency is one of the greatest gifts that God has given us,  but once a pregnancy has occurred, the choice has already been made.

What happened to good old fashioned values and morals?  What happened to taking responsibility for our actions?  

I am sad.

Be warned that this video is not for the faint of heart...





I'm not a particularly political person,  I actually pretty much hate the whole process.  I hate the back stabbing, and digging up dirt,  I hate the saying whatever you have to to win...  But I do think its important.  I just wish it was a little more dignified.
It's a good thing that I have friends with blogs,  who I can steal these videos from!!  :)


I hope all of that made sense.  Writing is NOT one of my talents.  I'm horrible at spelling, punctuation, and grammar.  Embarrassing but true. (although if you read this blog,  I'm sure you have already noticed.)  I think I was out of town when they taught that stuff in fifth grade...  :)



To lighten the mood:

This is Carsons favorite new perch for watching a "show".  Quinceys bassinet.  
 
Those are some pretty intense stares,  sleeping beauty is definitely a winner!
 


My mom will be here in T-6 hours!!  HOORAY!  I won't be blogging for a while.  Enjoy the break.


AND P.S.    GO VOTE!!
I have to add that because its what all the COOl bloggers are doing!  And I'm cool.  I promise.

Oh that makes me sick to know that the man who is probably going to be our next president was unaffected by this Woman's experience. My heart is broken over this. Have fun with your mom. Are you going to Utah for Christmas? I'd love to see you
