thanks, Amy

You have a wonderful holiday as well.

I believe in my heart that God would approve.

I believe you are right. I suppose it is possible that a few may disagree, but I doubt that there are any here who will be offended. I think those who come to Amy's Place are pretty much of like mind on this and many issues. :-)

Anyway, I don't see abortion as a touchy or even debatable issue, but I guess that is because I am 100% convinced that to abort an unborn infant is murder, pure and simple. And I cannot believe that those on the OTHER side of this issue can be equally convinced that it is not.

Thanks, Billie. It is an awful photo of me, but I think I have gotten to the stage in my life where I don't much care. ;-) LOL.

It is a beautiful morning here. 72 degrees and, for the first time since the fires started, we don't have that awful brownish haze hanging over us. It's really bad when you can 'see' the air....not good at all. We still have fires burning all over CA, but the winds must have shifted some.

MEG, have you heard that there is now a wildfire burning near Goleta and moving toward Santa Barbara? My heart goes out to the firefighters. They are completely overwhelmed with over a thousand fires burning. They can only deal with the ones that are threatening homes, the others are just being left to burn themselves out.

Going to lunch and shopping. Everyone, have a great day!

Mornin’. Beautiful poem and graphic.

Maybe it’s just me, but in my eye, a Mom-to-be is one of life’s most beautiful sights.

I read some of the threads last night. Too sad what these children are forced to endure.

These creeps should never be allowed to return to commit these crimes again. Death penalty for the murders; confinement on an uninhabited island after sterilization for these other animals that molest children.

Thanks, Billie. That Welcome Graphic seemed to be perfect .... Bright and Sunny.

Someplace I have a poem by either CG or NnB about the letter thief ... remind me to send it to you. ;^ )

I'll just say y'all have a good 4th of July.

[JustAmy]

Now how did that happen? Oh well ... looks like we also need a poem about double posts ... as well as one about theses darn machines deciding to reboot in the middle of a post.

;^ )

Your first animation is cute, Lori.

Thank you. I’m still learning to add frames and text.

Thank you for all your wonderful contributions.

I watched the video and read about the terrible 1990 Painted Cave fire..I was there and watched it come down..Terrible, terrible..May God be with all in harms way. I love beautiful , beautiful California and hate the black wounds fires inflict on it.
Prayers for the firefighters.

Can’t stay..must be off.

[JustAmy]

There you are with another "boring" story ... not.

I enjoy your stories, Fewz.

I hope you keep sharing them with us.

Have a fantastic 4th.

[JustAmy]

PS ... thank you for the YouTube links.

Thank you, Conor.

Fish Hawk’s poem and that graphic grabbed me.

[JustAmy]

When Fish Hawk posted that poem, I saved it. I don’t even know why except that the message was so powerful. Some time later, when I saw that graphic, my first thought was of Fish Hawk’s poem. I had to save the graphic.

I probably waited at least a week before sending you the graphic and the poem. I debated on whether to post it or not. It is not my usual type Welcome.

Thank you,Lori, for adding the border and thank you Fish Hawk for writing and sharing that powerful message dealing with abortion.

[JustAmy]

Thank you, GardenGirl.

The toddler makes the graphic come alive and the poem gives it the words.
