Daughters

I just want you to know Nikki and Tasha that I am very proud and so full of love for the both of you right now. I am excited for what we are about to do but I am more excited to see what God is going to do. Just open your hearts and let Him do His thing.




Both of you have had your trials but you trust that God is going to see you through it. You don't feel sorry for your self you rise above it. When I found out I was pregnant with the two of you I fell in love instantly.
You both have heard me say when I was younger I didn't think I wanted children but when you came around you totally changed my life. Actually, I don't know why I waited as long as I did to have you.


Now you have your boys, you have so much to look forward to, enjoy the time you do have because it goes by to fast. It gives me such joy to see how much your boys love the both of you. You are turning into such awesome moms.




I love to sit back and watch , you are friends as well sisters and that warms my soul. I didn't think I could love any one person as much as I did when the two of you were born but now we have Gabriel and Elias......... Sometimes when I look at them I am amazed at how perfect and precious they are. God has blessed us more than we deserve!!!!!!





God has brought us all to this place and I am looking forward to see what he is going to do next



. I love you my daughters, I am proud to be your mom!!!!!!!

Family

It's been awhile but I am back. This weekend was WE Women's Conference and all though I didn't get to go to all of it I was able to go to the beginning and was blessed by the worship. We defiantly have some talented women at our church. If I could only sing..What is funny is I was in the choir for awhile.I don't know what I was thinking when I joined. So now I am in the audience where I belong.........

My girls were able to go and I did Gigi duty. This weekend I had Elias.
I know I have said this before but I am so blessed by having two of the most beautiful and sweetest daughters , they are just as beautiful on the inside as well as the outside.






Nikki, Elias, Natasha and Gabriel. Aren't they adorable??Gabriel is 14 months old and Elias is 11 months..

Elias is going to have his birthday party soon and of course all of our family the grandmothers (two) grandfathers(2) great grandmothers (two) and aunts and uncles...A lot of friends and we are praying for nice weather.



What is absolutely wonderful is we all live in the same area. My poor mom has had her children live in some cases different countries . I am blessed because I can have the boys anytime I want and I am loving it. This of course is my dream come true.When we take them over night the girls see it as a break for them but I get to spend time with these perfect little creatures that God has blessed us with. I don't know what I did to deserve this life but I am not taking it for granted.This is my PERFECT!

My daddy loved all his grandchildren but the girls were special because he watched them grow up. I remember how his face used to light up when they would walk in the room. When they would come up to him and put their little arms around his neck he was putty in their hands..... Papa was their hero, they thought he was the best!!!!!! and, he was. I hope that we as grandparents can have that same relationship with our boys as our girls had with them.


As I am sitting here thinking about my girls I can't believe they are 22 years old and they have children of their own. To look back at my life I wouldn't change anything (well maybe one or two things but yet don't we all have them) because if things were different I wouldn't have my girls and our handsome , wonderful, amazing grandsons!!!!!!! If I knew it would be this great I would have had my grandchildren first(I know that sounds corny but I love saying it)
I am a work in progress, God continues to show me things that I need to work on but thank God my family loves me.

I saw this quote Nikki wrote on FB
"Because true love is unconditional"
So true.........



So I guess this is goodnight, thanks for visiting my little corner of the world, as my daddy used to say "Sleep tight and don't let the bed bugs bite"

A Must Read......

God's cake....
This is about the best thing
I've ever read as an explanation.


Sometimes we wonder,
'What did I do to deserve this?' or
'Why did God have to do this to me?'
Here is a wonderful explanation!
A daughter is telling her Mother how everything
is going wrong, she's failing algebra, her boyfriend
broke up with her and her best friend is moving away.
Meanwhile, her Mother is baking a cake and
asks her daughter if she would like a snack, and the
daughter says, 'Absolutely Mom, I love your cake.'
'Here, have some cooking oil,' her Mother offers.
'Yuck' says her daughter.
'How about a couple raw eggs?' 'Gross, Mom!'
'Would you like some flour then?
Or maybe baking soda?'
'Mom, those are all yucky!'
To which the mother replies:
'Yes, all those things seem bad all by themselves.
But when they are put together in the
right way, they make a wonderfully delicious cake! '
God works the same way. Many times we wonder why
He would let us go through such bad and difficult
times. But God knows that when He puts these things
all in His order, they always work for good! We just
have to trust Him and, eventually, they will all
make something wonderful!
God is crazy about you.
He sends you flowers every spring and
a sunrise every morning.
Whenever you want to talk, He'll listen.
He can live anywhere in the universe,
and He chose your heart.
If you like this, send this on
to the people you really care about.
Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we are
here we might as well dance!
