Perhaps the marketing people in Brooklyn should start a new campaign -- instead of free bible study they could advertise FREE College Education!!

I'll be laying on a beach in Kona, Hawaii -- sans child. Just me and one of my closest girlfriends soaking up the sun for a few days.

Have I changed?
by I-follow-the-narrow-path inyesterday my ex-boyfriend came into town, several months ago who moved away and we had to break off our relationship.
the relationship was rocky; however, before he was going to move, so it was easy to let him go.
we reconciled as he was away and we are good friends.

Yep, I've heard this many times....mainly uttered by people who have never set foot in a college or university. If only my college text books had been written for a 3rd to 4th grade reading level...things would have been so much easier. lol. I guess the dubs think that college consists of coursework about stuff like "the amazing life of the aardvark" or "young people ask: can I list college education on my resume since I've been reading the WT and Awake for the past ten years?"

I just can't say enough about this CD. Thank you so much for providing me with GOOD music for me and my children. I really appreciate the extra help in raising my kids in this system. The songs and lyrics are so catchy, we sing them over and over again in the car and wherever we are! The world has so little to offer that is not objectionable in some way - this CD is true to the Bible and society's publications. Thank you SO MUCH!Reviewer: Doris S - See all my reviews

REPOST: For mothers who have lost a child
by Lady Lee inon mother's day we often forget those who are mother's but never had the chance to hold their child.
some because they chose to give their child up for adoption.
others because of miscarriage or stillbirth.

My dear friend, Andrea, has endured NINE miscarriages during the past 5 years. After having her first child her dream was to have more and unfortunately, her body is unable to carry another. She miscarries late -- usually between 16 and 19 weeks -- the last time she knew she was carrying a boy. Andrea's sister is now carrying a child for her and her husband and is now into the second trimester -- we're hopeful that Andrea's dreams of having another child will finally come true. Through it all Andrea has remained positive and upbeat even while mourning all of her babies. Her husband is out of town on Mother's Day so Andrea asked if we could spend the day together with her little girl and my little boy. I can't think of anything better!

Isn't it a big No-No for Dubs to refer to KH as CHURCH?
by limbogirl inlast saturday i was at my favorite coffee shop with my three year old son -- great place because it has a train table to entertain the kids while mom has some coffee.
first thing i notice is what appears to be dubs but on closer inspection the two daughters look way too trendy to be dubs -- the parents, however, are spot on and were so dubesque i nearly laughed out loud.
so, hanging out having coffee with some other moms and i notice the daughters of the above mentioned family keep smiling at my son.

Hi 5th Generation:
true...church is a commonly uinderstood word...but back in my days as a dub we were forbidden from ever describing the kh as a church. if we were speaking to a "worldly" person then it was a way in which to witness because if you said to someone, I went to the kh last night, you were apt to get a question and an opportunity to witness.

Last Saturday I was at my favorite coffee shop with my three year old son -- great place because it has a train table to entertain the kids while mom has some coffee. First thing I notice is what appears to be dubs but on closer inspection the two daughters look way too trendy to be dubs -- the parents, however, are spot on and were so dubesque I nearly laughed out loud.
So, hanging out having coffee with some other moms and I notice the daughters of the above mentioned family keep smiling at my son. Not a big deal but as we're leaving, the two hipster daughters (probably 17 and 19) follow us and I hear them saying my son's name. That's odd, I think, how do "Brittany" and "Paris" know my son?? Finally, one of them -- says, "do you know [insert my super dub ex-father-in-law's name]?? uh....yes, I reply cautiously, how do you know him? (but I already know the answer at this point.) All of a sudden "Brittany" and "Paris" are sqirming..."well, um...he goes to our CHURCH." Ah, I see, says me, of course, your....CHURCH. "Yes, that's how we know your little boy." GREAT, I say with big fat fake smile plastered across face and then march the little guy out the door.
So the main point of this whole story....I thought it was illegal to refer to the KH as a church if you are a dub.
And to elaborate on the above point and point out the secondary points (oops...the dub speak is kicking in)
1. This exchange confirmed my suspicsion that my little boy is obviously attending some meetings when spending time with my ex-inlaws during my ex-husbands custody days.
2. Wow...the dress code has changed since my days.
3. My ex-father-in-law is about 85 and can't hear a darn thing...but these two hotties "know" him. hmmmmmm
4. Just kidding on number 3.
