Recal Notice

I got this from a friend of mine, I thought I would share this it's cute..........

The Maker of all human beings is recalling all units manufactured, regardless of make or year, due to a serious defect in the primary and central component of the heart. This is due to a malfunction in the original prototype units code name Adam and Eve, resulting in the reproduction of the same defect in all subsequent units. This defect has been technically termed "Subsequently Internal Non- Morality," or more commonly known as S.I.N., as it is primarily expressed.Some other symptoms
include:

1. Loss of direction
2. Foul vocal emissions
3. Amnesia of origin
4. Lack of peace and joy
5. Selfish or violent behavior
6. Depression or confusion in the mental component
7. Fearless
8. Idolatry
9. Rebellion


The Manufacturer, who is neither liable nor at fault for this defect, is providing factory- authorized repair and service free of charge to correct this Sin defect. The Repair Technician , Jesus, has most generously offered to bear the entire burden of the staggering cost of these repairs. There is no additional fee required.

The number to call for repair in all areas is :P-R-A-Y-E-R. Once connected, please upload your burden of S.I.N. through REPENTANCE procedure. Next, download ATONEMENT from the Repair Technician, Jesus, into the heart component. No matter how big or small the SIN defect is Jesus will replace it with:

1. Love
2. Joy
3. Peace
4. Patience
5. Kindness
6. Goodness
7. Faithfulness
8. Gentleness
9. Self control


Please see the operating manual, the B.I.B.L.E. (Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth) for further details on the use of these fixes.

WARNING: Continue to operate the human being unit without correction voids any manufacturer warranties, exposing the unit to dangers and problems too numerous to list and will result in the human unit permanently impounded.


DANGER: The human being units not responding to this recall action will have to be scrapped in the furnace. The S.I.N. defect will not be permitted to enter Heaven so as to prevent contamination of that facility.

Thank you for your attention!

GOD

Please assist where possible by notifying others of this important recall notice, and you may contact the Father any time by "kneemail".





One of the ladies I am in bible study with gave us this. Yes, this is cute but we do really need to listen and pay attention. We are in control of our destiny, this is OUR CHOICE. It doesn't just happen. Enough of preaching here is an update of the Espinosa house hold:
Tasha and Daniel are great, just getting used to being new parents and newly weds
Gabriel is of course PERFECT AS PERFECT can be. He went to the doctors got his shots and weighs 12 pounds and grew 2 1?2 inches. He has beautiful eyes (of course he is taking after his mommy).

Nicole went to her doctor and will have the baby April 13th. Daddy will be here. He is out of school for a little while. We have been busy getting all the stuff we need for baby Elias's arrival.

Pappa E. and Gigi are anxiously waiting for our 2nd. grand baby. We are enjoying Gabriel and are awaiting Elias. We were all at church last night together and we were just watching our family. So perfect in it's own way. God has blessed us with Nicole and Natasha. from there we have Daniel, Gabriel, Anthony and soon to be Elias Anthony.How does life get any better than this. Our Family tree is growing and our circle of life is flouishing. All I can say to this is Thank You Jesus!!!!!

A Blog called A Mother's Love

I started Blogging when I found out my daughters was pregnant.

I had started reading some other blogs and I thought it would be fun to just share my thoughts and opinions. It would be great If you read it but it was mainly just expressing myself. The more I would write the more I got into it. I have a lot of my family all scattered from California. Texas, Florida, Ohio, Rhode Island , Mississippi and everywhere else. This is a great way to keep in touch with everyone. I really don't like to talk on the phone( As as much as I talk this statement would be hard to believe)so this is a great way to let family know what's going on(some good some bad)-:

As I was blogging I found this woman and she is truly amazing.

Here I am worried about my girls and what ever is happening in our lives at the moment and this woman gave birth to a baby boy on one day and the next day he passed on to be with the Lord.

. Some people whine about how their mother was mean or they didn't get what THEY NEEDED but Brandy is praising God for the time she got to spend with her baby. She is strong and her Faith in God is even stronger. I don't want you to think I am putting her on this pedestal but It's this woman's attitude about life and God that truly amazes me. She could be bitter and selfish and say woe is me but she doesn't.She walks the walk not just talks about how she is moving forward in one breath and the next is playing the victim card.We need to take stock in what we do have and no matter what thank God daily for what ever he has done.

Brandy is pregnant again and I would like to know If you would pray for her. She is an inspiration to me and to many other woman around.I appreciate how God put her in my path for whatever reason.

Brandy, we all are praying for God's will to be done.I love you and can't wait to see what God has in store for you.

Here we go again

As you all know I have twin girls . Natasha who is the younger one(by two minutes) just had a gorgeous baby boy-Gabriel now two months old (I love this picture )



Things are going very well, everyone is adjusting well. Now that Tasha has Gabriel and getting a routine down Nikki is going to have our second grand child. Right now she is getting her practice with Gabriel



but soon her Elias is coming.


One little boy now and another soon to follow. .Nicole is getting induced so daddy can come and be with mom and his son




I am excited for Nicole she has no idea how much in love she is going to be with her son. The best thing that ever happened to us was having our Daughters. When I found out that I was pregnant with them our whole life changed from good to an AMAZING LIFE!!!!We have our struggles like all but we communicate and work things out NO DRAMA and NO ISSUES just us and this growing family................... God has truely blessed us.



So for now we are waiting , waiting for our little boy. I am grateful I get to the opportunity to be with both my girls in this special time in their lives. So stay tuned for the updates......we are soooo close. God 's Blessings on you all, GiGi

The Wisdom Of Waiting

These words are from my Pastor Jack Graham.
A lady who is leading our bible study sent this to me. I though I would share. I know I get impatient and wonder some times why I can't hear God.I hope you are blessed as I was. Blessings,




I will take my stand at my watch post and station myself on the tower, and look out to see what he will say to me…

-- Habakkuk 2:1


There is a key password for connecting with God. The word is patience. If you and I want to move toward an enduring faith, it begins with patiently waiting on and listening to God.



When we’re impatient, it’s usually because we’re not getting what we want fast enough. We become like Habakkuk who basically said, “Times are bad, God! Do something and do it now!”



But in his great wisdom, God doesn’t move at our will, but according to his purposes. And you may have noticed, God’s never in a hurry, but he’s always on time! Some of us give pain reliever more time to work than we give God.



So what do you do when God is silent when you pray? Let me tell you. When you struggle with doubt and uncertainty and don’t have a clue as to what to think or do… do what Habakkuk did. Wait patiently on God. There’s wisdom in waiting.



Waiting on God is trusting in God. Waiting is not passivity, it’s not just sitting back doing nothing. As you wait on him, you can actively pursue his heart, his will, and his mind.



Even if… or when… he brings you to the end of yourself, wait on God! Trust his wisdom and you will discover, like Habakkuk, that he is enough!





WAITING ON GOD IS TRUSTING IN GOD.

There and Back

Last Thursday Eddy and I went to Orlando to Nikki's baby shower. It was a great trip.I always enjoy driving with Eddy, we talk and get to spend time together, just us.We got there Friday morning and just chilled awhile. Tasha got to fly because she brought Gabriel with her.She came in the afternoon. It was nice to have us all together again plus one(-: Nikki got us a room at the Portafino

It was a nice room, I just wish we were there long enough to enjoy it. Saturday we woke up and I went over to Rossie's house, that is where the shower was going to be.

Rosie Ellis was our neighbor two doors down. We had so many similarities. She was our first friend in the neighborhood.Our husbands both named Eddy, we had the same van, same house, and we have two girls. She is all about IKEA(yes the store)This woman is obsessed with that store. Her house could be one of the showroom floors. Getting back to the shower, Rosie and Nicole's two friends had decorated the house so cute she had completely turned her whole house upside down for this shower.

Why is it you don't realize how much people mean to you until they are gone or you move away. We have lived next door to each other for years and we would hang out together for awhile then we would get busy and wouldn't see each other. This was more than just a party, Rosie put all of her self into this and it meant sooo much. Thank you Elyse, Rosie and Shaun you made this party such a success.

In this picture Rosie , Nicole and Me
Rosie. Nicole and Elyse


Nicole's best friends were the hostesses with Elyse


Where would we be without our friends??They celebrate our victories and comfort us in our loss but it is so important that we tell them what they mean to us.
I had such a wonderful time at the shower.So many of her friends came. It was so nice to be able to be there and celebrate this occasion with everyone.
We were very blessed that Eddy's family from Miami could come and be with Nikki.






So......... after the shower we went back to the room to get some rest because we were going to drive back to Texas. Eddy and Nikki were in one car and me in the other car. We were moving all of her stuff back home \. I had my doubts because the last time Nikki and I made this trip we were in the car all of 1 hour and she started asking me ARE WE THERE YET???? So Eddy drove with her most of the way. I was pleasantly surprised WE MADe IT!!!!! Nikki only was anxious the last two hours of our trip. Rightly so the girl is 8 months pregnant and she just traveled in a car for 20 plus hours, she did great~!!!!!!!!!

So now in the Espinosa house we have three women two men and 1 1/2 babies.....Needles to say we have what you call A FULL HOUSE. It has been two days and good so far. Nikki is unpacking and preparing for her new bundle of joy. Anthony will come when the baby is born. Please, pray for Nikki and Anthony , please pray for their new life as parents and that Nikki will adjust to her new life here in Texas. No matter where the girls are I want them to know how much they are loved. I will enjoy it while I have them with me. I praise God for giving them to me and what a double blessing to be able to share this time with them. God is good!!!!!




So as of right now we have four weeks to go..............until Elias comes..

Got to go to bed until next time, much love ,GiGi

A Mother's Love

We are going to Sunny Florida this Thursday. I saw the forecast and it will be just like this.........




Eddy and I are driving, first we are going to go to the baby shower.





Tasha is coming as well but she gets to take a plane because she is taking Gabriel It's going to be wonderful because the whole family is going to be together.









then right after that we are going to pack the car and Nicole up and bring her home.
I know the cycle goes on where we have our babies they grow up , get married , have children and move on but if I can have a while longer with my girls I'll take what I can get. I guess now they will understand how it feels to have a love soo strong for another human being. We fall in love with a man but it's not the same thing.That love is different. God has given this awesome experience to be able to give birth and then have that privilege to watch them grow up to be this person. I don't take that lightly.I never thought I was going to have a baby but when the girls came there was no hesitation, I was ready , and I didn't take that lightly..We were able to be there for Tasha through it all but not Nicole. At least we will be there for Nicole the latter part of her pregnancy. I am watching my girls grow up and become the beautiful young woman I knew they could be. We are blessed to have the two most beautiful young woman around( just a tad bit partial . I just know those little boys are going to be blessed to have mom's that love them and I know they will be awesome !!!!! So as you can see I am ready , willing and able to start our new adventure in grand parenting. All I ask for is that you pray for us, Eddy is going to drive a

VERY PREGNANT YOUNG WOMAN







18 HOURS IN A SMALL CAR FULL OF HER BELONGINGS. I will be driving the other car but I will be driving by myself so now you know why Eddy needs the prayers lol(sorry Nikki (-: It will all be good.I am truly blessed to have the love of my girls and a wonderful husband and father to my girls.I am sure I will give you updates from time to time until then, Blessings, GiGi....Oh I forgot we only have 5 weeks to go.....................................until our other bundle of joy comes.......God Bless You All!!!!!!!

3. When snow gets dirty and turns to slush.

5. People that whine about their life and tell you how bad they have it.
6. People that say one thing and do another.

I know one or two like this and I would just as soon stay away from them. They pull you down rather than build you up!!

But as we all know no one is perfect so.....all we can do is pray for you and hope that God can change your heart.

This is not being sarcastic or mean spirited this does come from the heart.............

The People We Meet

My mom sent this to me today and I thought I wanted to share this with you. We wonder so many times why people are put into to our lives and then all of a sudden they are whisked away.....This makes you really think....Or should I say this makes me really think.......................

I'm sending this to you to see what you really think.
Your response will be interesting.

Pay attention to what you read.

After you have finished reading it, you will know the reason it was
Sent to you.
Here goes:
People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime.

When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for that
Person..
When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need
You have expressed.
They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with
Guidance and support,

To aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually.
They may seem like a godsend and they are.

They are there for the reason you need them to be.
Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time,
This person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an
End.
Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk
away.

Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand.

What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire
Fulfilled, their work is done.
The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is time to move on.


Some people come into your life for a SEASON, because your turn has
Come to share, grow or learn.
They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh..
They may teach you something you have never done.
They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy.
Believe it, it is real. But only for a season.
LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons,

Things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional
Foundation.
Your job is to accept the lesson,
Love the person and put what you have learned to use in all other
Relationships and areas of your life.

It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.

Thank you for being a part of my life,
Whether you were a reason, a season or a lifetime.
Send this
To every friend that you have on-line,



All is well at the Espinosa house hold for now. Next week we will all go to Nicole's baby shower in Florida(even baby Gabriel) and we are going to bring her home. I am excited to have all my family under one roof again (only if it for a little while) Hope you really think about what you have read. Blessings, Maureen

Aunt Sally

In this picture is Aunt Emily (sisters) and Aunt Sally is on the right.







I was listening to this song on the radio and it reminded me of Aunt Sally so this is dedicated to her.



I grew up in Newport R.I. Almost all of my family on my mom's side still live there. My Aunt Sally is actually my great Aunt. She has eight children, Stephen her son died when I was young but seven of them live in R.I. We used to stay at their house when we were younger so we have been around them our whole lives.

This picture the sisters were just hanging out. My daddy had just died and this was the reception at mom's house. Aunt Sally was 95 years old. She is amazing. Aunt Sally still plays Bingo three times a week. Just a few years ago she gave up her car. Can you imagine 95 and still driving lol


We have a family Reunion every year and Aunt Sally is always the life of the party
She is the type of person you want to have around. She is happy and care free.....
A while back she had cancer in her mouth and had it operated on and when she woke up she wanted to listen to the baseball game on the radio. She was the only one who wasn't worried about it. She is a huge Red Sox Fan.


She has her own apt. which is in her daughter in laws house, she checks on Aunt Sally
and cooks for her. Her children drive her around and my mom takes her to Bingo. She has always done for herself but now (for obvious reasons)they look after her.You helped us out when we were younger and loved us and you have been a wonderful friend to mom. You are loved and adored by many so I want to take this time to say how Blessed I am to be a part of this wonderful family. Aunt Sally, I love you and I know we are better because of you.

God willing I'll see you in August. God Bless, Maureen
