So, I've been exclusively pumping for five weeks now. I really don't mind though, as I have the pump set up behind my little computer table so I can surf the net while I do it.  I recently discovered an on-line support group for moms of kids with Down syndrome and it has been neat to glean some information and receive support.

While exploring that group, I found a debate forum on the same site. If you know me, you know that I love a good debate. The topic du jour was large families. The gal who started the "discussion" was quite inflammatory about people "needing an excessive number of children". Immediately sucked in, I found myself reading the pages and pages of responses and rebuttals everytime I pumped. I was dertermined to read all the pages before responding myself. I made it through 22 pages and still had about 15 to go. When not on the computer, I was busy formulating my response, eager to jump into the fray.

Sunday night, I went to Panera for my weekly date with God.  On the way, I continued thinking about my defense of large families and how desperately they needed to hear from those with a biblical worldview, as it's a secular board.  At Panera, I sat down with my Bible and began looking for a Scripture I have the body of memorized, but not the reference (I'm really terrible about that).  Suddenly, some words jumped off the page and convicted me to my core, before making me laugh out loud. The words?

"Don't have anything to do with foolish and stupid arguments, because you know they produce quarrels." II Timothy 2:23

Needless to say, I've not been back to the debate board.
