National Anthem/Jessica Helms
Okay...so I am on the MOTHER THE WORLD
first leg tour with my kids heading from NC to Illinois. I stop to hang out with the Bateman's my new adopted family. Jessica is one of my neices. She just happened to sing for me in the basement the National Anthem. She is so awesome and unaware at how great she is. That is totally refreshing....I love how God just gives you this wild idea to travel the world talking about motherhood and then you are treated to quality entertainment in a basement in KY...Praise Him! Jessica loves to sing Christian music and is a strong Christian so I seriously doubt would be inspired to sign a record deal in a secular market..But seriously ....she ROCKS...and I am proud of her...I love the Bateman family...and Jessica and all of her siblings..my new extended family. Video quality isn't that great because of lighting.

HIV ADOPTION VIDEOS at TO BE A MOTHER of TWEITMEYER FAMILY
IT WAS A CRAZY DAY...HERE ARE OUR BLOOPERS!!!! 16 kids between the two of us....
"Mom, I Don't Wanna Die Like Nicole Kidman "
So one of my children (who wishes to remain anonymous in this blog post) was riding IT'S (his/her) bike the other day. IT (HE?SHE) fell and hit it's head on the curb (eventhough he/she was wearing a helmet). The child who will remain nameless, came into the house with a gigantic goose egg on the forehead....It was BIG so I said it would be good to have it looked at at the emergency room. The anonymous child said to me with tears running down (his/her) cheeks..."OH NO...Am I GONNA DIE LIKE NICOLE KIDMAN?" I said "first off you are not gonna die"...The child said "But Nicole Kidman died from a head injury"...I then said "It wasn't Nicole Kidman..it was Natasha Richardson." The child said "Whatever ..I don't wanna die like Nicole Kidman or Natasha Richardson."....LOL...the nameless child is fine and fell off it's bike again and skinned his/her knee and is in the living room right now with a wet paper towel on THE knee...
Lisa's Baby Died Here (Rockford Abortion Mill)
So, I just returned from a book tour for TO BE A MOTHER . It was an awesome trip. As I headed out in prayer it was revealed to me to video tape women and men, families while we were on the road. I stayed in Rockford, Illinois (my hometown). There is an abortion clinic there that has aborted 50,000 babies. The abortions take place in a clinic that is housed in an old elementary school that was built in 1898. Bob Brady (the man holding the angelic sign in the video) went to this school as a child. The parking lot where the mothers park prior to abortion was where he played at recess...when I was there I saw a beautiful sign of Jesus that had been painted by a pro life activist mail man Joe Nicosi...in the window of the abortion mill the owner had placed a picture of Jesus giving the finger to the counselors with a sign that says JESUS HATES YOU!!!! There are also rubber chickens covering Jesus on a crucifix and dolls dressed up like nuns in coffins. This is where the women go to abort their babies up to 18 weeks. While there I watched Lisa Johnson a woman who had an abortion at the clinic at the age of 14. Lisa goes to the clinic with her SILENT NO MORE sign (I REGRET MY ABORTION)..She hands out literature with her testimony along with directions to the pregnancy clinic. In her literature she talks about how the abortionist showed her a petrie dish of her baby post abortion and said "see it is just a blob"....That abortionist died of cancer at a young age. Lisa told me she was saddened by that because she always held out hope he would be saved...Listening to her I had tears in my eyes. Her voice is strong...her voice is filled with compassion, sincerity and strength. Still, you can hear that her pleas are genuine....50,000 babies are lost to this clinic...where children used to play outside with joy in their hearts...pray for these prayer warriors....who stand outside of this clinic..
Older Child Adoption: Bateman Family in Kentucky
I had the pleasure of staying with the Bateman family on my first official tour stop. I have some amazing testimonies I will be posting later but here is a look at the family. I am still tweaking my editing skills..Audio is too loud and can't figure out how to bring it down....on the flip software.
