    I have been a regular reader of your blog for some time, but your choice to omit a category of the kind of writers sought saddens me and causes me to lose a certain amount of respect for you. How sad that as someone who promotes diversity to such an extent in her own family, that you would choose to let your own biases influence your decision to copy/paste accurately from another site. You chose to make a political statement, but to me, it stands as an example of what the teachings of Jesus have been twisted into.

      I'm sorry, but I have no idea what you are speaking of. I copied exactly what was posted on our Grown in My Heart site. I wonder if it has been changed since then? I will go look at the original post and see if I can figure out the problem. Thank you for letting me know.

    That was my fault. I forgot to add Same Sex Adoption and added it after Lisa probably posted this. She copied it from the original posting. I apologize if you think that she was omitting it for some reason. She did not, at all. And, for the record, I don't ever think she would.

      Thank you, Marcie. You are right, I would not have edited the post. I appreciate you commenting.

    Thank you. I am so glad to hear that I misjudged what happened and I apologize deeply. I greatly enjoy your blog and was so disappointed because I do enjoy it so much. I'm glad to hear I was mistaken, and again, I apologize.
