Separation of church and state.

What does it mean to you?

I think the initial meaning behind this has been lost, and the intention has been twisted purposefully in order to deceive and control people.

Separation of church and state was an idea intended to protect the church FROM the state - not the other way around. Many people claim that separation of church and state is to protect the schools FROM the church. That is false history, false information and deceitful.

Read this article linked below. I can’t even imagine being this mother and being told by the state she is banned from bringing her own daughter to church. I am watching the handmaid‘s tale right now and articles like this remind me of that series so much. That series is largely about first destroying parental rights and eventually having the government control your entire life - including where your children go to school, what people do for jobs and even banning girls and women from reading the Bible. 😡

If we are not VERY careful - and protect parents and children who fall on both sides of the political aisle - we will give too much power to the government, and then it will be too late for The People to ever regain control.

We must remind - and teach - every generation of children that the government was set up to protect us, work for us and do what WE want as a collective people. We did not set our own government up to trample on our rights, including our religious freedoms written in the Constitution, and control us. That is why our ancestors fought in the American revolution in order to set up a government that worked for all of us. Teaching your children history is SO important.

Judge Jennifer Nofsinger, a far left judge and LGBTQ activist placed on the court by Gov. Janet Mills (D), imposed the unprecedented order on a member of Calvary Chapel Greater Portland.

I completely agree with this. ALL parents - no matter their income - should get a choice to send their children to whatever school we choose and we should be able to take our FULL tax money with us. Until then, do we really have School Choice? I say no.

NH EFA Program is “Best in America”!

Tax-payers demand transparency because transparency is key to building trust. The NH Education Freedom Accounts (EFAs) are already among the most accountable and transparent education programs in our state. Let’s acknowledge the oversight that already exists for this program.

First, EFAs are established by statute (RSA 194-F), monitored by a legislative oversight committee, and subject to regular reporting. Families must apply, verify eligibility, and reapply annually. Funds are restricted by law, reviewed before approval, and tracked through auditable systems that create a record of every dollar spent. How do I know this for a fact? I know this because my family utilizes EFAs for our two children this year. I also know if a family applies to use EFA funds for something not allowed per law, they are denied the expense, and rightly so.

Second, the EFA program undergoes annual audits conducted by Grant Thornton, one of the world’s largest accounting firms. The Children’s Scholarship Fund of NH (CSFNH) is a public charity that manages the EFA Program. They ensure their independent audits, IRS Form 990 filings, and detailed financial reports, are all publicly accessible. How do I know this? I know this information because it is all published online under the CSFNH website. All you have to do is visit their website and read.

Third, CSFNH holds a 4-Star Charity Navigator rating, GuideStar’s Platinum Seal of Transparency, and the “Best in America” designation awarded to fewer than five percent of nonprofits. In addition, EdChoice has named New Hampshire’s EFA program the most effectively implemented in the country for three consecutive years, citing strong safeguards and high accountability standards. I would like to personally thank the staff at CSFNH for going above and beyond to bring even more transparency to the public than is required per law. You don’t have to trust the staff at CSFNH or me, because you can look at the numbers yourself. Long live the EFA program in NH as it is truly a gem for children and families across the great state of NH!

My girls are back renting books and attending classes at the Goffstown library! There is a new director who is welcoming to ALL families and a state law passed that a parent can now get info on what books their minor children are reading (parents were not privy to this info before this law). Win win for both libraries and families! Transparency always wins! 🥳💕

My girls attended a teen event for Pi day and an event for St. Patty’s Day! ☘️ Thank you State reps for getting this law passed and thank you Goffstown library staff! 💕

I am still processing the results of our local Goffstown, NH elections. No real major changes for our school board, sadly. The board is still a Left-wing stronghold (mostly). Our conservative and Christian kids are still largely underrepresented on that board. 😞

This is frustrating to me because we HAVE the power to change this. It is as simple as people getting to the polls to vote. We all know Goffstown is a very purple town. We also know when more people get out to vote, we vote red (as highlighted by the statistics on the last Governor and Presidential races). How do we get more people to the polls? I’m open to ideas for next year. 🤷‍♀️

I am not losing hope. I have my Bible and I’ve been reading it. The good news is the race was VERY close this year. So close that a budget committee candidate won, and someone else lost, by only two votes! Let that sink in! TWO VOTES!!! Your vote matters!!! 🇺🇸

Everyone - keep doing what you’re doing. Keep using your voice, keep talking to your neighbors and keep shining your light! The world needs you now more than ever. 🇺🇸 ❤️

God is everywhere if you look. This little guy made my day. Thanks to whoever left it. 🙏 ❤️

Hello Goffstown friends - I am heading inside to vote right now and I’m wearing my Charlie Kirk Freedom sweatshirt. Please please please vote today. All of the candidates on the ballot put themselves out there and have to endure public scrutiny without being paid a dime - and they do this to fight for all of our children and families. 💕The very LEAST we could do is get up off our butts and go vote for them at the polls. Not many people vote in the local elections. That is why your vote counts more in these elections. A friend of mine lost by only seven votes in a past election. Seven!!! Your vote does count. Please vote today! 🇺🇸 

Also, I have warrant articles suggestions, if anyone wants those PM me. ❤️

THIS!!! Women should be supporting women no matter what we choose for our own families or our own life styles! This includes homeschool moms v public schools moms. Stop shaming each other and raise each other up! 💕💃

I relate to this woman in so many ways. I too was raised believing college was the way and a career was the pinnacle. That's what was taught to my generation. I gave it all up to homeschool my kids and I have never felt more proud and fulfilled in my life. Jobs will always be there waiting for me to get back into it later in life but my kids won't grow up twice and I don't want to miss it. 👩‍❤️‍👩

Take a listen to Sam Sorbo's story. It was emotionally moving to me and spot on to what I also experienced when finally deciding to homeschool. 🥰

Sam Sorbo was on the fast track to a successful Hollywood career when life forced her to choose between ambition and family. After marrying actor Kevin…

I was recently called a “helicopter parent” for demanding to be present when my child received any vaccinations. My kids are 10 and 12. No one is sticking a needle in either of my daughter’s body without my consent and my presence. No one. And I don’t care what you call me.

I will continue to do my own research on vaccines, decide which ones I feel are safe and appropriate for my children to receive, continue to space out their vaccine schedule, continue to push off vaccines until they’re older, and be present for all vaccinations. This is my duty and my job as a parent. This is my responsibility not the government’s. I care deeply about my children’s safety and well-being. Much more so than some guy getting rich who works for Big Pharma.

On top of that I will continue to shield my children from the weight of the world until they are older. Children’s brains are still developing at this age, and they aren’t meant to carry the weight of all the evil in the world. In fact, none of us are. The world is burning. But my little home is not. ❤️

If being called a “helicopter parent” means I’m acting like an actual mother is supposed to act - standing up for her kids, speaking up for her kids and physically standing in front of her kids, then I’ll wear that name as a badge of honor and y’all better clear the way for my landing. 🚁 ❤️

Hello everyone - This page is currently under construction. Please bear with me as I play around with this page and set it up for a different purpose. It will be used as My Voice - the one many try to silence. If you know me, you know that only makes me louder and more determined. 😉 Thanks for following me! ❤️
