Blogs for Life

I love living in the country, out a dirt road where I can sometimes ride five miles home from the highway without seeing another car.

But as much as I love living in the country, I also love living an hour away from Washington, DC. For those of you who don't know me so well yet, I spent a lot of my growing up and young adult years in DC, Falls Church and Alexandria - the perfect place at the perfect time for all my radical leftist antiwar/ feminist/pro-abortion crusades. Left in 1972 to join the more recreational side of the counterculture on the left coast in San Francisco and then Marin County. Came back to northern Virginia a born-again conservative 30 years later with a hubby, 12 kids (including three adopted sons with Down syndrome), two sons-in-law and eight grandchildren.

Okay, so have we established I'm pro-life? Only someone who has come out of darkness can understand the transformation you experience when you were brought up with no spiritual basis and you suddenly see the light. It's only then that you understand the sanctity of life. Which is why the two sides cannot communicate with each other at all - it's like two different languages and how those languages either facilitate or stunt your understanding and philosophy of life.

So here I am, back on the stomping ground where I worked for the dark side, now in a position to work for the light. And while last year at Sanctity of Life Sunday my blog was a week or so old and I was taking baby steps, now I blog, I really blog!

And so, yes, I am going to the Blogs for Life Conference! And the March afterwards - I am so excited!

If you can, please join us! If you can't, count on me to keep you up-to-speed on everything!

Love,
