I'm skeptical about Bush's ecnomic policy. If we are going to need tax cuts, then give tax relief to the poor and working class by not taxing the first $10,000 of wages earned. I think that would be a major boost to the economy.

My little girl slept, practically all night last nite, but she has woken up twice now since 8:30. It looks like I might be spending some time in her room tonite. I'm in charge of putting the baby to bed and getting her back to sleep whenever she wakes up at night. We just weaned her and then we are weaning her off the bottle to just sippy cups, and it seems to be going reasonably smoothly. Tommorrow morning, we are going to give her her milk in a cup and not a bottle, believe it or not, it is going to be very interesting.

I think that Catholic church in encouraging young families to have many children, should put equal emphasis on fatherly involvement. It is a nightmare watching two kids all day with no help. We have a couple of Catholic friends who are in this situation, i.e., two very young kids, and stay home moms, with hard working dads. Well it is a nightmarish situation for them just going all day and then no rest at night. It is so bad that we are worried and praying that the don't have break downs. Having many kids is surely a good thing, but raising them is not easy at all. The men have to get involved in day to day operations, the burden can't all be with the moms.
