The Hartford Courant

We made the front page.  (Monday, September 6th)  If anyone is interested in a hard copy, it's two pages with five pictures.  Mostly, I am happy with the article (see my comments from yesterday for explanation).  Lynn also made a valid comment, lol:  I homeschool my kids, therefore I don't work is pretty comical.  Well, I did work full-time for two years.  The article said that tbj, otherwise known as Thomas Bothur, has been gone for two years, well it's been three years and eight months.  I wrote a book after I stopped working, and a few magazine articles (Faith & Family this month, 5 pages).  That was work.  That would have supported my family, too, if tbj didn't threaten the publisher.  And I work on raising my kids to know, love, and serve God every day.  We all know the adage, "Every mother is a working mother."  It does make me sound like I sit back and collect welfare, doesn't it?  My next article will be "The welfare myth."  But I digress.

  1. I hope this article brings some attention to your case so that something is done about the father of your children not paying child support.

    I got a laugh out of the "she doesn't work" thing too. LOL!

  2. Yeah, it did kind of make it sound like you just sit back and collect welfare or live off of the generosity of friends...
