Please pray for a cure for Type One Diabetes
Our sons Tom and Christopher and our daughter Amelia are type one diabetics. We pray everyday for a cure. We do not want one by illicit means though so don't support any organisation that contributes to Embryonic Stem Cell Research. Click on the photo of Tom and Christopher to read about why I am against using Embryonic Stem cells for a cure.

Tom's and Christopher's insulin pump
New book: Faith Quilt.
All proceeds from sales of "FAITH QUILT" going to "Casa de Amor Children's Homes in Bolivia" and "Sarah's Covenant Homes in India" Two truly extraordinary organisations that take in the most needy children and give them a place of love and security to call home.

Thank you. I needed to read that tonight. Sweet dream and God Bless
i have a large family myself. mom and dad had 10 of us. 7 girls, and 3 boys. i love each and every one of my siblings, even if 2 have passed on to Jesus. one thing about having so many lovely siblings is that they help out when you need it, and they are there for when you need them to be. large families are closer in my opinion than smaller ones. my family is very very close. we are certainly not hard on the environment. most of the kids were fully grown when my younger sister and i came along, and all of them moved out except my older sister and myself, and my youngest sister.
we had every help to us when we needed it. i think when families are large parents are more careful with their resources and tend to be easier on the environment because they have to spend less money as there often is not alot to spend when you have 10 kids. so you tend to visit thrift stores and make clothing rather than be out buying it. and you also get hand me downs from your older brothers and sisters rather than going out and buying new stuff. smaller families like 2-3 kids is easier on the budget for sure. but 10, well you really got to save for that many. that article is really nicely done. it makes you truly appreciate the family even more than you do.
