Leave already ... m'kay?Yep, another celebrity has said he will take his toys and go home if he does not like whomever the country elects. Sounds really mature, eh?

I'm a fiscally conservative mother of three, so President Obama would not have been my choice. However, never, ever did it occur to me to LEAVE the country I love, the country of my forefathers, just because my candidate did not win. 

That type of partisanship disgusts me.

Watching George Lopez tell Piers Morgan he will LEAVE America if Sarah Palin wins just lost him a fan.

Commodes aren't something I think much about, unless I can't find one when I -- or one of my kiddos -- need it most. So I was shocked to learn that two-thirds of the world's population doesn't even have access to toilets. Worse? One and a half million children die every year because of diarrhea spread due to the same reason. Truly horrific. Can you imagine losing a child due to lack of toilets?

Enter the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, which has launched a challenge to reinvent the porcelain thrones of today to make them more accessible to the rest of the world.

You won't believe what's being proposed so far ...

My Then Baby Boy Dressing Up Like His DaddySergeant 1st Class Leroy Arthur Petry is the second living recipient of the Medal of Honor from the Iraq and Afghan wars. His story is the stuff of legends and epic movies. Shot in both legs, he seized an enemy grenade to save fellow rangers in harm's way. Having lost his right hand, he applied a tourniquet, and continued to give out orders. 

Having proudly served my country in the reserves, with a husband who also served active duty attached to a field infantry unit in the Sinai, my heart bursts at such valor in such an exemplary soldier.

As a former soldier, I feel extreme gratitude for his service and sacrifice, but as a mother, one of my biggest fears would be if my own sons and daughter were to ever be called upon to make a similar sacrifice. 

Call me a hypocrite, but how do military moms do it?
