aww..that is too cute!! I almost miss that age...but mine are teens now....I understand completely.
You know, a funny thing happened the other day. My 5 yr old asked me if I was her brother. I said, "No, baby! I'm your dad silly!"
Then I thought about it.
"Actually honey... I am your brother! I'm your brother-daddy! I'm your brother in God! Just don't tell folks I'm your brother-daddy unless they know what it means ok?"
doh!

Good thing you added that last bit.
Oops... Ole did it again and the Senator bought it.

Of all the accusations that are following Senator Charles Grassley's "investigation" of 6 major ministries, the "$23,000 Antique Marble Commode" is my favorite, hands down. Yes dear readers - I've seen Joyce's commode. It was an antique donated to her ministry specifically to sit in the lobby of her office. Lobby you ask? That's right. Look at these pictures of antique commodes:

In the antiques world, a "commode" isn't a toilet, it's an antique chest of drawers. I think you'll see that Grassley and Christian media "critic" Ole Anthony are going to be embarrassed with this one... But you can see how the damage gets done. You accuse someone in the national media, and whether you have your facts correct or not, the damage to their reputation is done.
Worse, there may be really worthy issues with these ministries that need to be addressed, and I'm all for obeying the law and operating above board. But when you throw in undocumented assertions in order to hype up the story, it's way out of line.
Even in pursuit of a good ideal, this is a terrible way to go about it.
We work with him daily. He even has an OT and a PT. the pediatrician says that speech delay goes hand in hand with TOF. We try. I am even trying to get him into speech therapy.
That is commendable. I'll be praying for you all. I know how tough it can be at times. *hugs*
