Out of Pocket

Well this really has NOTHING to do with MckMama...I will be leaving very early tomorrow morning to be with my mom who has colon cancer. Will you say a prayer for her, if you think of it! We would greatly appreciate it! Cancer is a beast! So hard!
I am so thankful to God, He is the one who gives us strength to carry on! I am thankful that even in the hard times, we can renew our strength in HIM!

Isaiah 40:28-31
Do you not know?
Have you not heard?
The LORD is the everlasting God,
the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He will not grow tired or weary,
and his understanding no one can fathom.

29 He gives strength to the weary
and increases the power of the weak.

30 Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall;

31 but those who hope in the LORD
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint.

Toys

So when I went to check in and see what the BIG discussion would be today at MWOP, it is about toys. Do the MCK have toys! I mean are we serious people? You are going to debate that? And bash that! Um, okay then! I think they have nothing good to talk about!

A Poem

You Ask Why I Follow This Jesus?

Why I love Him the way I do?

When the world's turned away from His teachings

And the people who serve Him are few.

It's not the rewards I'm after

Or gifts that I hope to receive

It's the Presence that calls for commitment

It's the Spirit I trust and believe.

The Lord doesn't shelter His faithful

Or spare them all suffering and pain,

Like everyone else I have burdens,

And walk through my share of rain.

Yet He gives me a plan and a purpose,

And that joy only Christians have known,

I never know what comes tomorrow,

But I do know I'm never alone.

It's the love always there when you need it;

It's the words that redeem and inspire,

It's the longing to ever be with Him

That burns in my heart like a fire.

So you ask why I love my Lord Jesus?

Well, friend, that's so easy to see,

But the one thing that fills me with wonder is

Why Jesus loves someone like me.

A new low

Can I tell you right now I am absolutely disgusted with the internet. Some of the people. To even make an assumption that MckMama's kids would be abused, or that they should have taken care of that problem, or any other thing, is the lowest of all lows. The ladies over at MckMama without Pity should be absolutely ashamed of themselves. I mean they really should. You have now not just attacked MckMama, but you have attacked her children. You have put claims on the internet, based on your false assumptions. It is one thing to tear her apart for photo-shopping her kids, it is another to say they could be in danger. Ladies did you really just go there? Unbelievable! I feel sorry for you all.

MckMama, if you ever visit here. i just want you to know how sorry I am that people, that fellow ladies, can be so vicious. I am sorry that they have attacked your family. I am sorry that you even have people like them on the internet spreading terrible rumors about your mothering skills, because in essence that is what they are doing.

Baby 5

I am so happy for you MckMama. Welcome to the world of 5 kids! It is exciting, fun, adventurous, crazy, exhausting, rewarding, and so much more! What a gift God has given you. God is good. I will be praying for your pregnancy that it goes smoothly. :)

Food Choices

So this morning they ladies over at MckMama Without Pity are complaining over her food choices. I mean that is boring. They complain MckDaddy is boring, but who cares what she eats or what food she blogs about. Who cares if she blogs about organic cooking, but does not always follow that. That does NOT make her liar, but a human being who craves different things.

GOOD FOR YOU McK Mama eating what you want! If you crave a BIG fat pizza I hope you get yourself one. AND take pictures of yourself eating doritos, that WILL REALLY make the ladies over at the "other" blog go crazy. It would be funny really. It is funny they get there panties so in a wad over what you eat.

MckMama you are pregnant. Eat what you want. When you want. How much you want. And enjoy it! Thank you for all the wonderful recipes you have posted. I have enjoyed several! Your recipes ROCK! And I hope you have a wonderful day!
