CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
Ok, I'm in!!

The weather! Never snow, wintertime is the best....cool at night & really nice during the day...we can have the house opened up all the time!
I love driving around seeing palm trees wherever I go, knowing I'm only like 15 min from the beach, the casual laid-back atmosphere....

Do you have a book (other than your Bible) that you read over and over again? If so, which one and why?

"girlish figure"
I've actually just started again...I do the Walk Away the Pounds series, it's a 2 mile "walk" in 30 minuted...basically marching in place with alot of upper arms to go along with it. I need to get my hiney back into the habit of it, it helps me to feel better, keeps my BP down, and is a big stress reliever!

Not a book, but an author (here's a gulity little secret...I mean pleasure!
)...Stephen King! I belong to his book club, so I have most of his books, and have read them many times over. I love scaring myself...:o

I do! I read the Mom's Devotional Bible that I got when I joined MOPS a couple years ago. I also read The One Year Book of Praying Through the Bible by Cheri Fuller.
The Mom's Devotional is great, because each one really applies to me as a mom. And the other one I like because besides doing a daily devotional, it's got Bible verses so I'm reading through the whole Bible...which I've not done yet!

BuddingThorn said:Did you name your daughter after anyone?
Ummmm....I could say no, but the actual answer is "kind of"....
We knew we wanted a name that could be shortened by either using initals or a variance of the first name. How did we pick her first name? My husband is INFATUATED with the actress Andie MacDowell
(*too bad there's not a "rolls eyes smilie")...and the more we thought about it, we really liked the name Andie...so we "lengthened" it to Andrea. Then just came up with a middle name, so we could also call her "A.J."

Oh I have so many!! I love to watch her sleeping, especially after a "challenging" day....she looks like such the little angel! Reminds me that "this too shall pass"!
Now, she's playing alot with her dress-up box. She came into the den last night where my DH & I were watching tv...she had her pj's on, but was wearing a Cinderella tiara, Snow White princess shoes, carrying a magic wand, and proceeded to turn me into a princess, our dog into a princess, and her daddy was a king!! So cute....

cookieboo said:Do you plan on working outside the home after Andie starts school?
Probably part time. I'd like to find a job that will allow me to take her to school and be there when she gets home....I'm toying with the idea of becoming a substitute teacher, or working in the school office or library or something like that.

That sounds great Debbyandiesmama said:
Yeah, when my kids started school it was really important to my husband and I that I would be home for the kids after school so I found jobs that worked with that. So does that mean that you are going to go back to school too or do you already have the education necessary?

Did you have a person in your life who you consider your Christian mentor? If so, how have they inspired you?
