To my beloved husband, and very best friend Eric Wharton Author Icon
You are my greatest treasure and I love you. *Heart*


I am happily married and my life has been abundantly blessed with a wonderful loving family. My blog is about the tapestry of two lives that God has permanently woven together by His love and our journey through our many trials, triumphs, and the God-size miracles we have witnessed throughout our daily lives with our strong faith in Christ.

There are some stories in the news that just ticks me off, and when I read this one, it made me so angry. I cannot believe the audacity of the father, the wife or the prosecutors.

A married man leaves his 18-month-old son alone in a van outside a strip club that he is at in cold low 20-degree temperatures. – After being arrested his wife bails him out. What the heck?.... All I can say, he can be thankful that wasn’t my child he did that to.... Or the jerk hubby might be dead.... The article says the prosecutors are considering charging him... I think they should throw the book at him, and put him under the jail.

Where is child protective services when they are needed? Isn't anyone sticking up for this child to protect him, why would the mother bail the father out of jail.

Dang it, this makes me mad.


MAPLEWOOD, Minn. -- Prosecutors in Wisconsin are considering charges after a Minnesota man allegedly left his 18-month-old son in a van outside a strip club for several hours Wednesday night.

The complaint alleges the 45-year-old Maplewood man lounged inside the Cajun Club in St. Croix County while temperatures outside dipped into the low 20s.

The club's manager said a customer entering the club told staff there was a baby crying in a van outside. After finding the doors of the van locked, the manager called 911. The club made an announcement seeking the van's owner, and a man came forward. Officers were waiting outside.

St. Croix County Sheriff Dennis Hillstead said the boy was strapped into his car seat and was wearing socks, a jacket, and sweatpants. He was treated at a Hudson, Wis., hospital for exposure and frostbite and released.

The man was arrested on suspicion of neglect of a child -- a misdemeanor -- and booked into the county jail. The man's wife bailed him out.

The sheriff said the man had told his wife he was going to the grocery store for milk, but went directly to the strip club.
