*Stepping on my soapbox now*
Stepdad, Mom Charged in Precious Doe Slay
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - For four years, she was known only as Precious Doe, a little girl whose headless body was found along a road. On Thursday, police identified the girl, arrested her mother and stepfather on murder charges, and pronounced the sad mystery solved.
The girl with big brown eyes and neat cornrows in her hair was identified as Erica Michelle Marie Green, just shy of 4 when she was found.
Her mother, Michelle M. Johnson, 30, and stepfather Harrell Johnson, 25, were charged with murder and endangering the welfare of a child.
Police said Harrell Johnson admitted that under the influence of alcohol and the hallucinogenic drug PCP, he became angry with Erica when she refused to go to bed, grabbed her, kicked her and threw her to the ground, leaving her unconscious. After she died, he said he used hedge clippers to sever her head.
Both suspects were being held in Oklahoma, where they live.
"We have closure," Police Chief James Corwin said. "The little girl that we've known for four years as Precious Doe has a name."
Now, with that being said...here I go! How in the hell can someone tell me to wait for a baby..and when God feels its time for me to have a baby, I will. So, you are telling me...that God felt it was time for this woman to have a baby?!?!?! Nothing in the world makes me any madder than trying month, after month, after years..and have nothing..like I don't deserve a chance to love a child...and some moron like these 2 mentioned above gets one! OH MY GOD!! Right now I am so mad I can't hardly type...so for all of you that wants to tell me to be patient, wait for it to be my time...BITE ME!!!
A Mothers Love
A mother's love is like no other
Self-sacrificing, unselfish, patient
Always putting the needs of the child
Above the needs of themselves
Willing to sacrifice their life
If it means allowing their child to live.
A mother's love begins before conception
The desire to parent, to make a difference
To unconditionally love another
Burns deeply in the depths of the heart
And so the adventure begins
Of this mother's love.
Five years ago I began this thrilling ride
From the depths of depression to the
Thrilling peaks of expectation
Only to come crashing into reality
An ever growing mother's love
With no receiver.
Each month found me returning to the line
To ride the ride one more time
That little bit of hope
That little bit of Mother love
Encouraging me to take the journey
Just one more time.
A romantic spontaneous evening for two
Has turned into a game with a team approach
The playing field is white and sterile
The equipment is needles, blood draws and ultrasounds
The timing is crucial, the plan is prepared
And we play this game, for a mother's love.
Mother's Day Is Coming *sighs*
Well, Mothers Day is coming quickly! Here is sit with nothing! No child, no baby, no hope! I promised myself I wouldn't get upset this year...but I feel it...I feel it crushing my heart..again! Last week would have been my baby's first birthday but, I wasn't able to enjoy it..I had to lose my baby too soon..and I often wonder why...why me..why anyone that has problems... To all you mothers out there..Happy Mothers Day! and to all the other "non-Mothers" from the bottom of my heart..I'm sorry.
Nutrionist...
Wow, time flies when you're depressed! Well, I saw the nutrionist last week and I have lost 6lbs. Not a great loss, but a loss anyway. So, she put me on a 1000 calorie diet and we will see how that goes! I havent been feeling well, emotionally, so the diet is kinda off and on..but I'm hoping to get straight again. *sighs*
This week...and nothing!
Well, this week has been good. Stayed on my diet..averaged 1200 calories all week. Ive been drinking ALOT of water and going to the gym everyday for water aerobics! (only exercise I truly enjoy) and I have been weighing myself..everyday..yeah, yeah I know its bad..but im addicted. And well, Ive gained 8lbs! I am in shock! So, I called my nutrionist in a panic and have an appointment with her on Tuesday. Monday is weigh-in..heaven help me!!!!
Weigh-in Today
Well today is the day..the dreaded weigh-in. Well, i carefully stepped on the scales..numbers went up..and up..and up..and finally...landed 3.7lbs lighter than last week! WHEW!! what a relief! So, I was happy with that, although I feel I could have done better if I had gone to the gym. So, I called to see what I had to do to renew my membership, so off to the gym I go today! Hopefully, by next week 5lbs will be gone. (BTW thats my goal for next week) Wish me luck!
Weigh In Tomorrow
Yikes! Weigh-in is tomorrow for our new group. I sure hope I've lost something. The weekend is the hardest for me, seeing how John isn't too keen on the idea. I have been doing okay diet wise...had chinese last night..but, other than that..healthy, healthy, healthy! I'll post what happens tomorrow...wish me luck!
