• May. 23, 2008 - My Heart is Breaking
My heart is breaking tonight. It is breaking for 400 something children that are not with their mothers, who are in foster care and group homes and don't understand what has happened to their lives in the last 6 weeks or so. It is breaking for mothers whose arms that were full of beautiful children are now empty as they cry themselves to sleep each night, as they wake up empty each morning. It is breaking for each and every father who has done nothing wrong, but is paying the price anyway. It is breaking for the mothers who have to explain to their children each and every time they get a 'visit' that 'no, honey you can't come home with Mother.' I am imagining the pain in your heart every time your child must be pried away from you at the end of these visits, it must be an almost physical pain.
My heart is so heavily burdened for these children in Texas tonight, and for their parents and grandparents and other family members. I am up at 2:30 am praying fo these people because I could not sleep for thinking of these mothers and their children. Please Lord, allow these children to go home. Please soften the hearts of someone, anyone and let these mothers have their empty arms filled up again. You can work miracles Jesus, perform one now, please Lord. I ask in your Holy Name, Jesus, Amen.
For more information on the cases of the FLDS children please read at www.heartkeepercommonroom.blogspot.com (for some reason I cannot get a link to work for this, so you'll have to cut and paste) for daily updates
What truly broke my heart was this absolutely beautiful song on the FLDS website
(Be warned, if you listen, you'll need tissues, it's just a heartbreaking song/video)

• May. 27, 2008 - Keep Sweet
Yes, please propagate my idea of using "Keep sweet" as a rallying cry and slogan to identify yourself as a supporter of family rights! That is not "stealing" at all. It's my intent. :)
While the shed's down you can reach us at blackstonefamily at gmail dot com. We'll be at the Common Room too, of course. We've also just started getting active at the Bettendorf forum, and I know while the shed's closed that's going to fill a gap. :) There's also my Woodshed blogroll page at http://www.google.com/reader/shared/user/12477422568653117389/label/ws
