WARNING: This is completely politically incorrect and possibly offensive. It was said however with shear innocence.
SCENARIO: Watching the Suns playoff game the night Al Sharpton had his immigration march.
Television flashes to a picture of the march.
Tween: Are all those people Mexican?
Me: No Tween, they are not all HISPANICS ( Emphasis on correctness) There are a lot of different races walking together in protest.
Toddler: Wow! That's a lot of Mexicans!
Toddler: TaTa (grandpa) , so when to men hold hands while walking they are called Mexicans!
TaTa: (quick response) Not that's called marching.
Me: ( Laughing hysterically on the inside. )
Welcome to my politically incorrect family by accident.

Katie
Today I realized how much I miss you. Yesterday I remembered how much I love you in my life. Tomorrow hopefully you will read this and smile. Your strength and grace amazes me and I marvel at your unrelenting faith. Oh, to trust in good and life without question has always eluded me but you are proof in its good. I too hope to achieve this level of trust in the Lord. You are my mentor, sister and friend; forever a confidant always a blessing.

Thought You Should Know
Thought you should know, Tween, I see that your beauty radiates inside you as well as outside. Thought you should know, Tween, I see great success in your future. Thought you should know, Tween, that sparkle in your eyes lights up the room. Thought you should know, Tween, your love of family is apparent and a million times returned. Thought you should know, Tween, your presence is a gift to us. Thought you should know, Tween, everyday holds a miracle and a message if you look for it. Thought you should know, Tween, God blessed me the day you were born and his blessing grows stronger each day you are in my life. I just thought you should know.......
