The Road of life


Sometimes I think about the world and our country, and it makes me worry about my children so much. They have so much ahead of them. So many blocks of life that they haven't yet walked down. So many corners unturned. So many challenges.

My oldest daughter is twelve. Soon she'll be going through some changes, they're already starting. I wish I could just hold her hand and guide her through life, helping her make the right choices.

    Juanita, I understand why you might worry about your children. Our granddaughters spent the last night with us. They are so trusting of everything, Jordan is 10 and Kendyl is 5. Whe I tink about the future,I've learned to trust in the Lord with all my heart and to lean not on my own understnding.

    I really like this picture.

    Change is scary, isn't it? It's hard for me to think that with each year, I lose a little bit of my kid. It's hard. But we'll all be okay.

    I know what you mean. My twelve-year-old will be 13 in March. It is kind of scary.

How to Cheat without Getting Caught (What I've Learned from Men)

I remember being cheated on. I remember catching him red handed and listening as he denied the whole thing. I remember wondering if the other woman knew he was married. Odds are, she probably did. I didn't understand it and the truth is, I didn't need to. I just needed to remove myself from the situation. My ex was careless in his cheating. After my experience I began watching how men & women cheat. Cousins, friends, co-workers - it seems that everyone has a "Sneaky Link" or a "Secret Bae." And although the memes would have you thinking otherwise, it's not cute. But still, it's interesting. So here are some of the best tips I've learned on how to cheat without getting caught:  1. Let the person you are cheating with know that you are already married, or in a relationship.
