    Thanks! So, a Rogers cop makes double what a sheriff's deputy does where I live. 

    @Catfin good point about Cathy's job! 

    Personally I suspect Cathy is helping but isn't entirely paying for law school.  I don't think Jim Bob is contributing a red cent. 

    I looked it up yesterday and U of A law school is ~$8k a semester. In comparison, Harvard Law School is ~$64k per year. $16k a year seems like a steal for law school but I think you get what you pay for.

    This was new to me when I read about it today. I am cool with things but they/them means more than on person. I agree, is there something new we could use, its confusing. 

    Person 1: “I saw someone at the post office and they asked about you.”

    Person 2: “Oh, what did they say?”

    Have you all seen this photo? Josh looks enormous, At first I thought they stretched him but no one else looks that big :O

    Josh’s family looks off to the side enough that it seems intentional. The Smuggars will probably be cropped out for promotional purposes.

    That monkey pacifier isn’t heavy is it? That kid doesn’t need more dental problems than he’s already inheriting. 

    It’s a Wubanub. My best friend’s daughter looooved her “puppy”. My kids had a duck and a frog for which they used only a few times. It’s good for eye development. Some kids need oral comfort past the first year.

  5. If Joy had had proper prenatal care, it’s likely she would have known Gideon was breach. I hope the girls who marry into the family are smart enough to keep Jill and her medical things far away from their hoo-has. Lucky for Jinger, she’s hundreds of miles away or she’d likely be expected to use Jill’s... skills. (Not that I think Jeremy would let Jill within a ten foot radius of his wife and daughter, but distance is a polite excuse.)

    Hello, my name is Nurie Rodrigues.  I am 19 years old and the oldest of 13 children and my parents are in full time ministry.  We LOVE serving the Lord together as a family!  We have a Printing Ministry and we also travel and sing as a family.

    Yesterday (Thursday - June 14, 2018), I and my 16 year old sister - Kaylee (pictured above)- were en route to a pro-life Crossroads Pregnancy Center where we volunteer.  

    The car was VERY hot, making the steering wheel burning HOT!  My sister and I were trying to turn the AC all the way up in the car to cool everything off.  We had JUST left home and were nearly at the end of our curvy, West Virginian road; when I looked down at the AC to make sure my sister Kaylee had done it right.

    It was at that DREADFUL moment when I took my eyes off the road for a second, that the road curved to the left with the DEEP ditch straight ahead.  I knew in an instant, I was in trouble.  The car brutally smashed into a boulder rock and it created a COMPLETE turn over of the car INTO the ditch!!

    We landed UPSIDE down with the air bags projected and I was TRAPPED in my seat belt UNDER water!  My sister Kaylee was knocked unconscious.  I struggled to get out, but could not.

    I began to think this was the day I was going to meet my Maker.  Yet, I had a desire to live.  I began to faint, when my sister Kaylee woke up!!  Praise the Lord!  She called my name and did not hear me answer.  So, she began to reach for me.  She found my buckle, unbuckled me, and quickly pulled me out of the water.  GASP!  I was thankful for air!

    We found a way out of our open car window.  We suffered MUCH bruising, cuts, and stitches and staples had to be administered to patch us up.  However, we were BEYOND grateful to still be alive!!

    My parents quickly made their way to the scene of the accident with TEARS of joy we were okay.  

    I am SAD to say though, that I totaled my parents' vehicle.  They did NOT make me feel bad about this at all, but assured me it was our LIVES they were GRATEFUL were spared with no major injuries!!

    However, their car insurance will not cover this accident due to it being an older car and ONLY having collision insurance.  

    As you can imagine, I feel TERRIBLE about this!!  My heart and mind INSTANTLY began swirling of ways that I could raise some money for my faithful, hard-working, forgiving, sweet parents.  

    Being in the ministry is already an intense life of faith.  God is good to always take GREAT care of us and my Dad ALWAYS makes sure the bills are paid and there is food on the table.

    However, the expenses in our home, with 13 children and being in full time ministry.......well, it leaves NO extra money to buy a car!!  

    This summer, our family (unexpectedly) has an entire trip out West planned due to needing to drop off my brother Timothy to Bible College.  We have meetings in churches along the way that our family will be singing at, but this trip was a step of faith for us.  We were scraping our pennies already to afford this trip.  Now, we are VOID a car, with ONLY our big van left.

    The car was a tow behind car that we brought with us on trips as an errand car once we were hooked up with the RV at various churches, etc.

    Also, it was an errand car for us grown children and for my parents.  It helped save LOTS in gas, as opposed to taking the BIG van to run small errands in town.  

    I would love nothing more to SURPRISE them (especially my dad) by raising enough money to help him purchase another MUCH needed car!!

    Please prayerfully consider what you could do to help me make this happen!  **Remember, your investment would be eternally rewarded, as we are a FULL time ministry family and striving to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ with a PASSION!!

    With a Heavy Heart and Humble PLEA to Help Me,

    Nurie Katelin Rodrigues

  7. I never watched The Willis Family when it aired but this new blog by the oldest has me riveted. Those are some talented kids (when compared to the caterwauling violins that the Duggars play and don’t get me started on the Lawson Bates.) 

    Crimes against children are not endearing to the penitentiary hierarchy. It’d be a shame* if he had to spend 23 hours a day in solitary confinement because of his crimes. (I don’t wish physical harm or rape on anyone no matter how much of a disgusting monster they may be.)   

    I really hope Jessica continues to blog because I think her voice would be a powerful tool for others healing from sexual abuse.

    They can't disappear soon enough for me. They're just bigots in candy coating. 

    Topic: Anna is developing a Mullet-type figure. It's especially striking because both she and Smuggar were so thin when they married. 

    Too late. I was at Target and I saw they have a line of home goods. 

     

    Is a trip to the Gainses like a fundy pilgrimage now? Enquiring minds want to know.

    Latest update: baby is breech and/or transverse. C-section scheduled for Wednesday unless the baby flips. The blog post goes into more detail as to the other challenges she may or may not have (Stormy IS prone to exaggeration).

    Why do I feel like Nurie is sucking up to the parent who likely controls the food?  (I’m cynical, I admit it.)

    With the number of kids turning 18 and getting married increasing each year, I can see TLC/the production company not wanting to negotiate with each individual every time. They also don't want to pay more for the talents.  So the idea that the money is put in a company/trust or whatever makes sense. Of course, it's clearly none of the children who manages it. JB views his kids as minors. There no way in hell is letting them handle that money. Also, JB and Michelle are probably not getting paid for the show. I really don't see them wanting to lose that cash. He probably convinced the kids that this was the best for the family. That's disgusting and I can see why Derick is pissed. But his anger at TLC is misguided. They paid the Duggars the money according to their contract. The rest is none of their business.

    Of course, this is pure speculation and I know nothing. 

    Which makes sense that Jill herself is still appearing since she’s the one under contract, not Derick. I wonder if the pool house was their compensation?

    Interesting water discussion especially from us metro Atlantans. I wonder if we already know each other. Wouldn't that be a hoot?  I think Jana is prettiest followed by jinger 

    Meet up! I suggest JCT Kitchen followed by Jeni’s ice cream.

  12. In all this mess, I got to thinking: I wonder if Jim Bob put the house that backs up to the interstate in Jessa and Ben’s name as “payment.” It was Mary’s while Josh and Anna lived there. I remember it being “valued” at $100k which is no way legit. I don’t think Jessa and Ben would have purchased that house for that much money. But if all TLC funds go to JB, I can see him signing over the house to them in lieu of giving them actual money.

    We moved to metro Atlanta a little over two years ago after living in Baton Rouge for a long time. Baton Rouge water is delicious. It comes from aquifers -can drink it straight from the tap. Here we used a Brita pitcher which is enough for the two of us. Definite difference. Not in a good way. 

    Also metro Atlanta, but our water is fine and I can’t tell the difference between filtered and tap.
