Earth Day

I have really been slacking on the blog.  I will be better.  I really like doing it, so I don't know why I have not posted in so long. 

I am writing from Tennessee today.  I am doing a pregnancy center event tonight.  Pregnancy centers are awesome, aren't they???!!  They used to only to pregnancy tests...but now they do ultrasounds, pregnancy tests, STD tests, counseling, parenting classes, education in schools, and all kind of other things.  They are so comprehensive now.  It is amazing!  And the people that work there are amazing, too.  It is not just a job to them.  It is really a calling...a mission.  They sincerely care about the men and women to enter their doors.  It is such great work. Tomorrow I am off to New York to speak at another pregnancy center event.  Saturday I am back in Houston speaking at a Right to Life event.  So many great things happening in the pro-life movement!! 

Doug and I decided that we would take a family vacation to Tennessee this summer.  Lots of fun family things to do here.  They have an indoor water park thingy that is a resort.  We will probably check that out.  Then we will HAVE to go to Dollywood!!  They have rides and things that Grace will love.  We will drive so that we can stop along the way.  I think it will be fun.  It will be our first family trip like that.  It should definitely be an experience. 

Today is Earth Day.  I think it is funny how people think that if you are environmentally aware then you are a liberal hippy.  That is ridiculous.  It's like people think that if you recycle and drive a hybrid then you worship mother Earth.  You know, I believe that we need to take care of this beautiful creation that God has given us.  I believe that is part of loving Christ...we have to love the gifts He gives us.  It's like people think that if you believe in global warming, then you are a pagan.  It is so silly.  We have to protect our planet so that our children will have a place to raise their children...that is kind of part of the pro-life message.  That actually is about worshipping God...I think so, anyway.  So, protect our planet, protect our children, protect all of the things that God creates. 

So, my awesome website guru, Thomas, said that my blogs need to be shorter...so I guess I should wrap it up...although, I feel like I hardly said anything.  He knows what he's doing, so I will take his advice and close by saying thank you to all of my followers.  I will have an awesome website up soon.  It will be http://www.abbyjohnson.org/.  I will let you know when it is completed.  I know you will all love it.
