A baby only 18-month-old baby was found alive 14 hours after the car she was in plunged into a river in Utah. That is just a miracle! The baby was discovered hanging upside down just above water still strapped in her car seat by a fisherman on Saturday afternoon. Reports have it that her mother Lynn Groesbeck from Springville who was driving the car was found dead when help arrived.
The baby was rushed to a hospital in Salt Lake City, where her condition has has gone from critical to stable. She is expected to have a full recovery. She is indeed a blessed child! This is why is it always good to strap children in. That and a divine intervention saved her life. May her mother's soul rest in peace.
I actually felt a jolt in my womb when I saw these. LOL. Don't worry hubby it was just a passing feeling. These adorable baby photos were taken by London baby photographer Sandi Ford who released them to celebrate Mother’s Day and the coming of spring.
Well this comes as no surprise to me...I suspected so. Jussie Smollett, who plays Jamal Lyon on Fox's hit show Empire, has come out as gay.
"There's never been a closet that I've been in," Smollett told Ellen DeGeneres in a backstage discussion after an appearance on her show. "I choose not to talk about my personal life. But there is, without a doubt, no closet that I've ever been in, and I just wanted to make that clear." The star went on to say:"When I say that I don't talk about my personal life, I'm saying that, but it is in no way to hide or deny who God made me. My Mama knows. My Mama likes me a lot ... and yes, I take her to the Sound of Music sing-along every year."
This story hits home for me because I have a child who is 4 years from being 14 and is very computer savvy. What worries me more than anything about this girls' story is the fact that she was able to access porn at such a young age and go on to get addicted without any adult in her life finding out! As parents we really need to be more alert as to what is going on in our kids lives.

In a vlog series where she talked about her addiction, Oghosa confessed it started for her at age 14 when she curiously took a peek at online porn on her computer. What she saw quickly became an addiction that was so consuming that from ages of 18 to 21, she would lock herself in a dark room and watch adult movies tirelessly and masturbate up to six times a day sometimes.
She also revealed her addiction stems from being abused at age 6 or 7 and went on for about four years. Oghosa has now curbed her addiction and is trying to help others by bravely speaking out about her addiction on YouTube in a series that has gotten over 800,000 hits.

A UK woman Anne-Marie Casson(pictured right) served as surrogate for her own son Kyle using a donor egg that was fertilized by him. She has become the first woman in the UK to be a surrogate for her own son. Is this bizzare or what??? I know it is not her egg or anything but still...it is just weird!
The journey to having baby Miles(pictured left with dad Kyle) started when Kyle Casson at age 24 started researching how he could become a father. He was turned down by many surrogacy clinics because he was single and did not want to adopt because he wanted a biological child. After trying to get a surrogate and failing, his mother Anne-Marie volunteered and according to her, was backed by their doctor who had done it for a couple of families.
'Although he'd never done it for a single person he said he preferred surrogacy arrangements where the surrogate was related to the parents because there was less chance of something going wrong at the adoption stage, Anne-Marie said
