VOTE!  VOTE!  VOTE!


I'm glad the campaigning has stopped.  It was cumbersome and well all the spin was making me dizzy.  I got my good friend Carrie to register, which reminds me I need to call her and prod her to actually vote and I called my mom to remind her to vote.

I don't envy the man who takes office and the mess he will have to clean up.  I've been in prayer for our nation.  I feel like we are due a hard lesson but I pray the Lord will have mercy on us YET again.  My peace should be in Him but today I am nervous.  Which direction will our country be headed?  How will this country react to whoever wins?  What does this all mean for the future of my children's children? 

Tucker wants to go to Chuck E. Cheese on his birthday, which is this Thrusday.  I look at the 6th and think, wow we'll have a new President by then. How will this event change my life over the next
4 years

Lots of questions.  Lots of PRAYERS going up.  God's mind can be changed, just ask Lot and Moses.  I know we deserve a spanking, Lord, but your Grace is abundant.

So, Thursday my little family and Carrie's little family will go to Chuck E. Cheese.  We'll play games, eat pizza and cake and we'll have a new President.  Life will go on and my children will know no difference.  Tucker will be 4 years old and that bright eyed boy is simply thrilled that he's old enough now to chew gum.

I always say if you don't vote you can't complain. Plus votes for women were hard won so I figure I should make the most of my rights ;)
Whoever gets in will benefit from prayers - the scriptures teach us to pray for them (1 Tim 2).

Happy birthday to Tucker! And yes, life will go on regardless of who gets in...

Lord knows that this country needs a spanking but God's grace is indeed abundant. Had our mock election at school today. Obama won by a landslide. Observed that those who voted for McCain had some really good reasons that they voted for him, Obama...not so much. Happy Birthday Tucker!!!!
