My favorite show lately is "Life in the ER". I'ts not reinactments, it's the real deal and the real blood and gore of the ER, and I love it! Tonight I watched one with an 87 year old lady who had a stroke. I just want to say -- "I LOVE old people!" I really do and I would be a good care taker for the old! Maybe someday that will be my calling.
As Scott and I were rummaging through the DVR I stopped on a 20/20 from last week a few days after the Haiti quake. I was heart broken over the children of Haiti. From what I understood there was a horrible problem with orphans before the quake, and now, oh my goodness, can you imagine? During the viewing of the mess in Haiti and watching the children who are devistated, my 6 year old son called me into his room. He said, "could you sing me the angel song?" I hope he couldn't hear the TV, but he was feeling something, so I sang the angel song. Looking around the boys room and seeing everything we are blessed with made me want to burst! I wanted to fill the room with beds with little hatian children in them! I thought to Baillie's room and how there is only one bed in there. There could be a couple of bunk beds giving children a warm, soft place to feel loved. I might be crazy, but just to feed curosity, I am going to look at the web sites and see what's up with adopting those children. NO, I'm not going to run off and adopt, but looking can't hurt, right?
We are really SOOOOOOOOOOO blessed to live in America! With all the messed up things our country is dealing with, we are still SO lucky! I want to share this feeling with my children and help them to know their blessings.
God is good, and I know he loves those people in Haiti and I know he will comfort their pain.

Why NOT run off and adopt??? You could do it, Billie! You'd be so great at it. I want to. I really am considering it. I don't know how to go about it, but I'm so going to try. Let's. I want to adopt the elderly, too.
