Uh...I guess I'm confused as to the adultry part. Were either of you married when you had a "moment" together? If you were that would be adultry. Being sealed but not legally married doesn't give you any rights or excuses.Any sexual contact with out being married is a sin. Sealed or not sealed.

Northwinds and I will be there for sure! We wouldn't miss it!

If you've ever seen Dr. Phil he says that it's your husbands job to deal with his family. I use that as a rule of thumb. Basically you step back and let your husband deal with it, it's his family, it's his job. I have to agree that moving far away works wonders though!

Good Heavens I am glad I don't have the preisthood! To me the priesthood is a HUGE responsibility and I take it very seriously. I for one am glad I have the blessings that come to me as a woman. We are caught up in a society that tells us as women that we ahould be able do everything that men can. If that were the case shouldn't we all be be men? (perish the thought!) There isn't anything wrong with having different callings in life. Motherhood is just as important as holding the priesthood. Women can receive all the blessings from the preisthood that a man can. It isn't about being equal and having the same "rights". Besides, if that were the case we'd all have a lot less children in the world if the guys had the "right" to experince child birth My take on it is, we don't know why things are the way they are. All I know is that HF knows more than any of us and why question the one who knows everything?

I hate haing my toes stepped on when I have no shoes and they do.....makes me want to strangle someone.

Northwinds and I teach CTR 5 the best class in the primary!!! Was just released from being the primary pianist and taught RS for a couple years when I lived in Oregon.

Thanks for that link. Personally that it my favorite performance of that song.

I am so sorry to hear about your situation. We have had lots of problems with custody too only ours is the other way around with the mom neglicting the kids and we can't do anything about it. One thing I can tell you is get another lawyer. Some are more aggresive than others. Sometimes you have to have one who will go after everything and anything. If all you can do is fight him through the law do it!!!! The PI idea is great. Exactly what I thought. Call the police and ask for a well child check. Call DCFS as soon as she gets back or even before. If you don't have time to even talk to her when she comes back then they can't think you are coaching her. You have to fight for her. You can't think that eventually you will get her away and then she can heal. The longer she is abused the longer her life will be a mess and will take longer to have any good relationships with men and with people in general. And eventually she might hate you for knowing about all of this and not stopping it. You have to fight! I have other children too but they are ok. They are safe and they know we love them, but they also know that they have a brother and sister who are not loved and taken care of. Any oversight or sometimes not having enough time or being stressed out is understood b/c they love them too. Don't gve up. I know sometimes it is so overwhelming and is easier to just let it go, but it is our job to protect them no matter what. Good luck! Keep praying for her and to know the right path. Try fasting for an answer. HF loves your daughter and he will help you to find the answer. I'm not sure that forgivness is even the issue right now. Right now you need to take care of your daughter and focus on that.

Susie, You can also try leaving his diaper off for a while after you change him and let him "air dry". The diaper rash ointment isn't suppose to make the rash go away, only protect it from getting worse. If his bum is still wet and you put the ointment on it locks the moisture in (making it worse). Make sure his bum is really dry before putting anything on him.Sometimes cornstarch or baby power will help but again he has to be super dry before you put it on. Even if all he has is a diaper rash, you can go to the doctor and get a stronger ointment for him if it doesn't clear up in 4-5 days. Poor thing! Good Luck!

First of all, President Hinckley does not have pets due to the fact that he lives in an apartment that does not allow pets. Secondly, Thank you for grouping all LDS families into one group. We loved being stereotyped.(We are a family of one dog and one cat) And last, I would seriously question where you testimony is. Where in the gospel does it say we have to have pets? Shouldn't we be basing our testimonies on the truthfulness of the gospel principals? I fully agree with you mr....... absolutely ludacris

I have been reading a lot about the good facts of green tea. What I am wondering is, is green tea against the word of wisdom? We use some herbal teas when we're sick but I don't know if green goes in the ok column or the bad column.

Hey! I can read that! ( I can't spell either......) Sorry, I was logged on under Mr. Pixie instead of myself........... :)

Thanks for that SF. Great Sunday reading.

How the heck did you get your ALMOST 3 year old to potty train? When my 8 year old was training, he was no problem at all, he just did it!! But now I have a 3 1/2 year old that just has no desire at all!! We tried, but he just could care less whether or not he is sitting in wet pants. I can not believe that two kids from the same mold can be so different in areas like this!
