Brush off his teachings and follow our brother Lucifer. Now I know that I have with that one paragraph made some leave myContinue reading “Faith”

Scout Mom

My boys love scouting. I always wanted to be a scout and loved interacting with my brothers and the troop they were in as a kid. I was seriously so excited to have my boys in scouting.

Seems weird to start a post with that title, but I think it describes the feelings in my home currently very well. We all feel trapped. Now, is this because of our own choices or others choices?
