Our Mimi, family celebrity

Did you hear about the 9-12 Project? (More info here: http://www.the912project.com/) My mother-in-law was there! Last week, she flew by herself (on 9/11) from Alabama to DC to speak out against the current health care reform bill, among other things. I am beaming with pride! We looked and looked for you, Mimi, on Fox News. We just knew we would see your spunky self being interviewed, or chanting with a sign, or maybe even being arrested! :) Even though we didn't see you, the children knew you were there. We told them you went for them. They know you care enough about them to fight for their future. We are thankful and proud!

I also reminded them of your trips to Africa, your fight for creationism to have equal footing with evolution in high school text books, and your crusade to save the unborn when you directed Save-A-Life! We pray that these grand babies of yours- all 6- will inherit your passion for justice and your voice for the voiceless. We are so thrilled that you are passing down a love for Jesus. You once told me out of all the people in the Bible, you most resonate with Peter. I love that about you! You fight for what you believe in. What passion! Thank you for being our Mimi. We love you!!
