Late, Late, Late

Well my day is not starting off well.  I didn't dry my gym clothes, and for whatever reason I laid back down after I turned off the alarm!  Can I just scream now...   

Well yesterday I was reading about red envelope day: 
The thought behind it is to send an empty red envelope to President Obama at the White House. On the back a simple yet powerful message: “This envelope represents one child who died in abortion. It is empty because that life was unable to offer anything to the world.”

The goal is to have a tidal wave of red envelopes flood the mailroom of the White House.  Mr. Otto, the brain child behind this project, says the red envelope message would be “quiet but clear”. Go to www.redenvelopeday.com or call your local Right to Life office.  

I think this is an interesting project, i'll be interested to see how this will be handled at the White House, and if the media will talk about it.  I think I will dedicate mine to Rose.

Hey Shelley! I saw you at the gym yesterday morning. You are doing great!! :) Maybe it seems like no one is noticing all the little choices you make every day that are good for you. Don't let it get you down - I understand how huge it is to pass up a lemon scone or not go to Taco Bell! Let's show Micah we've got what it takes to do this!!

The red envelope idea is really cool. When is that going to happen? I want to hear more about it on Thursday night.

Keep up the good work, man. See you soon!!

Kim
