Last updated on: May 31, 2016 at 12:04 pm By Guest Contributor

As a teenager I worked in an after school program. I was assigned as a janitor in the elementary building to a tough but very smart boss. He wasn’t much taller than me, and I was only four feet eleven inches or so at the time but his sense of presence made him seem enormous. When he spoke his words left a long lasting impression on me and I still remember much of his advice. The one thing that stuck... Read more

Last updated on: May 31, 2016 at 12:04 pm By Guest Contributor

Furry and wrath race along my spine and down my arms into my fingertips as I start to write this. I’ve taken a long break from reading political. Yesterday, however, I heard my Missouri Representative’s comments. Rep. Todd Akin, on the Fox News Jaco Report said: “legitimate rape” rarely results in pregnancy because “the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down.” He has since recanted his statement as off the cuff. I didn’t care. When... Read more

A Mother to Many

Last updated on: May 31, 2016 at 12:04 pm By Guest Contributor

I can’t have children. With that simple statement comes images of an infant’s downy checks under soft hazel eyes wrapped up in a blanket, a toddler racing up to me wanting her mommy to see what she’s found.

In my mind I hold these mourned children and they smile at me and I feel our connection – that great mystery of blood... Read more
