Friday Night Pics at the Peace House

My son Jon sitting next to the computer. It never would connect to the wireless, But we showed Cindy the Cartoon, and she LOVED it, and went around showing everyone!


Man who came to sing a song for Cindy


My son, bless his heart, spent all his money on 'cool buttons' and proudly displays them.




Son walking on his hands..forever the entertainer.


My kids with Cindy

9. Texas Lady, please check out this thread
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=104x4334502

I think that there is a great talking point in there as you have to face the righties tommorow.

Thanks again for posting pics! It means so much to those that can't be there. You are raising great kids.:yourock: :hug:

14. thanks i read the thread and it is really good!
I told my kids tonight, when they are going to be reading about this in their history books one day, to be sure and tell the students which side you were on, then make sure you tell them that a picture with Cindy is worth much more than a glimpse at potato head *.

Tomorrow, I plan on telling the kids to feel sorry for them, the freepers, and to be proud that we are on the side of truth. I think they already understand that though. At least theyll all know where their moma stands.

16. Nice pictures
Someday they'll be worth something. Maybe not money wise but with memory wise. You can say you were with an anti-war hero. :) God bless Ms. Sheehan. I wish I could be there with you guys but you all have my support, prayers and love.

18. I'm humming "Peace Train" by that terrorist Cat Stevens in my head now
We are governed by paranoid baboons

They can't deal with intelligent discourse:

Peace Train
by Cat Stevens
Now I've been happy lately, thinking about the good things to come
And I believe it could be, something good has begun

Oh I've been smiling lately, dreaming about the world as one
And I believe it could be, some day it's going to come

Cause out on the edge of darkness, there rides a peace train
Oh peace train take this country, come take me home again

Now I've been smiling lately, thinking about the good things to come
And I believe it could be, something good has begun

Oh peace train sounding louder
Glide on the peace train
Come on now peace train
Yes, peace train holy roller

Everyone jump upon the peace train
Come on now peace train

Get your bags together, go bring your good friends too
Cause it's getting nearer, it soon will be with you

Now come and join the living, it's not so far from you
And it's getting nearer, soon it will all be true

Now I've been crying lately, thinking about the world as it is
Why must we go on hating, why can't we live in bliss

Cause out on the edge of darkness, there rides a peace train
Oh peace train take this country, come take me home again

Great photos! :)

I just emailed y'all some pix I made for printing posters. Here's the small versions (I also sent 36x24 poster sized, in case you have a capable printer):

21. "Teachers are not terrorists." Love that button!
I want one of those. I'm a high school teacher.

Your son is experiencing something very special. It's great that you can share this moment in time with him!

Thank you so much for graciously sharing your days with us. I always look forward to your reports. You rock!


Peace.

And you are teaching them what it means to have real values and to love peace. How lucky they are!

Best picture I have seen of Cindy is the one with your kids.

23. Jon drew that cartoon??
Can we get that cartoon posted up here? I'd love to have that for my computer too! I'm 22 and I can't draw anything beyond stick figures, haha.

I HIGHLY recommend having that sent in to the newspapers too. It captures the whole sentiment so well I really think it could get published. Cindy's approval makes it all the better.

Your kids will treasure that last pic in an unbelievable way a few years from now, as the realization sets in about how big this really is.

24. Those are great TexasLady
I love the picture with your kids and Cindy. They are going to treasure that all their lives. I am so glad you took gatorboy's cartoon to Cindy. And I especially love that you have been out there so much for us. Keep up the great work and I'm sure we'll see you out there today.

:yourock:

Peace
Sonia

26. Wonderful photos, Texaslady
Thanks for sharing them

I especially like the one with Cindy & kids -- Cindy's smiling, clearly enjoying the kids company, & the kids enjoying it too.
