• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

Things that make you go "WOW......"

"........they are growing up so fast!"

With in 2 days my 13 month old took her first steps and my 3 year old took his first poop on the potty (Woo Hoo on the way to being completely potty trained) !!! :clap:

Some times I'm just amazed at how fast time is going by! :sigh: How about you?

No, you're not. :)

I have been feeling that way two, in light of my son turning two. Suddenly I am not recieving the babycenter bulletins anymore, but are getting "parent center" ones! I am not th emother of an infant, or baby, but a toddler! He can't get in for free much anymore. He talks. He runs. He is showing signs of starting to potty train. Soon he will be sleeping in a toddler bed.

I wish I could just freeze this moment in time and open it up in about 12 years when he is being a typical teenager. And at times I wish I could re-visit the times when he was so little, and Iwondered if he would ever learn to walk.

*sigh* If I blink twice, I will be at his wedding.

My oldes just learned to ride her bike with out training wheels. that was a big WOW for me. she just did it. they amaze me every day in the things they do and say. I am just in awe that they are truly little people like us.. I Know what a true blessing I have with them.
