Three of my girls are half Native American...I got really tired of people telling me that I had to preserve their heritage, and bring them to pow wows, ect. They are also Finnish.....I did tell them something of the native culture, but to me it was more important to bring them up as good Christians and Canadians-well rounded individuals, and they are free to pursue more info as they wish.....Robyn Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17468902026400244973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3357106425964870484.post-76832344900912151632008-05-06T22:45:00.000-07:002008-05-06T22:45:00.000-07:00Wonderful photo - I agree it is a great choice for...Wonderful photo - I agree it is a great choice for the letter F.<BR/>I worked with a young women who is trying to adopt a child from China.

I wonder what would happen if fellow Christians asked each other.. "Are you raising your child in the knowledge of the love of Jesus Christ?" I don't think I have EVER been asked that. I have been asked. "Are you teaching your kids about their Italian Heritage? Did you tell your kids they have American Indian in their blood? " I have responded to those people and say yes.. But I am teaching them about MY Father. My heritage with Him.. and How they to can be heirs to the throne.<BR/><BR/>Thank you for the reminder of freedom! In all cases of my life!Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14387128258158512359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3357106425964870484.post-64276243944226353352008-05-06T08:02:00.000-07:002008-05-06T08:02:00.000-07:00"Freedom" and "Flag" -- you hit the jackpot with t..."Freedom" and "Flag" -- you hit the jackpot with this photo for "F"!<BR/><BR/>I finally bought "Dreamer" on iTunes... but of course I'll still keep visiting your blog ;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11993523624097521042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3357106425964870484.post-66739582126876875412008-05-06T07:45:00.000-07:002008-05-06T07:45:00.000-07:00Robert, this is great... and moving.
