The world needs God.

I debated for about...5 seconds on whether to write this post or not. Mostly because thinking about it makes me sick to my stomach. Our neighbors have a flag flying just under the American flag that says "the world needs God." I could not agree more.
Especially after hearing of yet ANOTHER "mom" that killed her 13 month old baby. THIRTEEN MONTHS. Are you kidding me?? Sadly, I'm not kidding you.

I hold my baby extra tight when I hear these stories.

I look into his helpless eyes and wonder what sort of monster could ever murder such an innocent.

It brings tears to my eyes and I can't even bare to let my mind go to the place of picturing a tiny child brutally beaten to death by it's own mother. If ever we needed a savior, it's now. They don't know. They're children. They TRUST us. If you're going to have a child, love it. If you have a child and you don't love it, I know plenty of people that would absolutely love that child as their own.

This world NEEDS God. So desperately.


If you care to read about this awful story, here's a link.

P.S. That's a picture of C, not the baby from the story. Just thought I should clarify. Now go love your children.

sadly, this event took place mere miles from our house. we could see the helicopers flying above the scene. a teacher i work with had the mom in his class when she announced she was pregnant with little tyler. he never would have guessed that she would have been capable of this. so so so sad. makes my heart hurt. so glad that we have a relationship with the ultimate Father to guide us and calm us during our most frustrating moments as parents.

True. And so sad. Your son is so loved by so many and it shows in his eyes and smile. Wish all children were as blessed.
