Guess what?!

We got a new-ish car, and I'll be able to learn to drive it!  Yay!

Meanwhile, Harley's second tooth is finally trying to come in!  She's had one for two months now, we were wondering when the second was going to arrive.  We've had to wait to introduce things like crackers and some chunked fruits and veggies because of her late teething, and it's finally progressing!

While I'm here, I wanted to address a current events issue.  A woman in Atlanta was arrested for posting on Facebook that all white cops should be killed.  My grandpa, Harley's great-grandpa, has been in law enforcement since he could hold a job.  He still does it on the weekends.  If anyone ever thinks that a cop should be killed just for being what he is, remember, he might have a baby at home, or a grandbaby, or like my grandpa, a great-grandbaby.  When my husband and I moved in together, he took us shopping and spent over $150 on groceries for us to make it through our first month.  He GAVE us the car that we just got, all we had to do was pay for a few minor repairs (which he actually paid to have done, and we'll pay him back over time).  He is one of the best people anyone could meet, and I'm not saying that just because he's my grandpa.  Everyone he meets is touched by him.

The point is, not all cops are bad.  Sometimes good ones make mistakes, and sometimes those mistakes are big.  Sometimes good cops had bad training.  Sometimes, the people going after them are simply wrong.  So please, don't blame every good cop for the actions of a few bad ones.
