My blog posts seem to be about my kids, a lot. I don't apologize for that. They are good kids and I'm super proud of them. I'm only mentioning this because one of my brothers-in-law attacks my position on politics (worst thing in the world to talk to relatives about) yet can't take the heat when applied to him. Maybe he doesn't feel as passionate about his subject as I do about mine, or maybe he's just letting the fire die? Who knows. I definitely have my opinions and find it a hard balancing act to not let them spew out to the point of offending others who think differently (although, I really DO think mine are the best)!
Politics relates to my family in a strong way. Joe and I are conservative (more to the middle than the extreme right) and we believe in strong family values, such as the ones represented by Sarah Palin. Do I believe she is ready to be president? No. But I do think someday she might be, and if not then she is certainly a role model for a strong woman. Someone who puts her family first, yet still has interests of her own. Of course her kids make mistakes, just like all our kids, but she never apologizes for how much she loves her family and the lengths she'll go through to conserve that closeness.
