Happy Mother's Day

As I focus on the blessings in my life. I think of how blessed I am to bring forth life. I treasure this gift so much. I treasure the gift of giving birth to my wonderful children. What an awesome experience!!!

I was thinking the other day---that I have yet to meet a pregnant mommy who doesn't have the glow of motherhood. I can see it in their eyes. These mothers love the fact that a new life is growing in their womb. A wonderful and treasured miracle.

What joy motherhood is to me. What a true blessing in my life. Every mother needs to sit back and consider that bearing children is not just something that just happens but it is a gift from the Father in Heaven. A gift that can not compare to anything in this world. No worldly treasure can bring the joy that motherhood brings. Nothing!

So today I thank my God who has blessed me this Mother's Day with 7 wonderful and beautiful children. Be Blessed today on this wonderful day.

Blessings

Thanksgiving at home: First time in 18 years

Let's just say that we didn't plan to spend Thanksgiving at home this year. I think the last time we celebrated in our own home was back when Moriah was a baby. Yeah...that's about 18 years ago or so. Let me tell you....W e absolutely loved it! Here's a little run down on how our plans were miscommunicated. You see...Donnie and I didn't communicate our Thanksgiving plans very well this year. He had forgotten that we had spent Thanksgiving with his side of the family last year so that meant it was time to drive up to Jacksonville and spend time with my side of the family. With not much talk of our T hanksgiving plans, I hear from the kids that he t old brother or dad not sure who that we would be heading down to see them Thanksgiving. This conversation happened just a few weeks before Thanksgiving. Kids: Hey where are we going for Thanksgiving this year? Me: Ummm....I think it's Jax. One of the kids: I thi

Stop the Rush

Since returning to blogging, I'm finding some drafts lost in the archives of this ole' blog. It's interesting to read and think about the day, time, year....when I wrote this specific post. What was I feeling? What was I thinking? This specific post was drafted on March of 2016...Ana was around 7 years old. That was almost 5 years ago! This sweet little girl turned 12 last week. As I read through the post, I remember that feeling of "rushing", a lot of it was in my mind but I also was rushing...kids to school, boys doing some sort of sport, Ana was taking dance, helping kids with homework, no need to go on. You get my point. This was 5 years ago! This was a year before we left our town Gainesville, Florida to explore the United States and Mexico. A lot has changed since then and looking forward to catching you all up on everything. So here we go... Most of the time I find myself barely living in the moment. That's if I don't purposely try to liv
