Jesus And Peppermint!
I usually do not get political or controversial on my blogs. And I don't expect this to be a start of anything different. I do want to say, though, that the principal in Nebraska who banned candy canes from the classrooms because they were in the shape of J...

THIS HOME BELIEVES….
