Crazy things.

You know when I was growing up in church, I though that my church was nothing like churches were made out to be. As I grew up and started doing work in the church, I noticed people attacking me or talking about me. Why? I dont know. Over the past, I say, 2 years, I've learned the reasons why people dont want to attend church.

I'm just curious as to why people attack people who are working and striving to be who God wants them to be.

Why, when, you are honest, people say you are lieing? Even if evidence goes your way.

Why after a year ,and you are no longer a part of that church body, they still feel like dragging you down with them and others?

I've learned that the only person you can trust in God.

You try to show some light to people that you feel God has called you to do and it blows up.

Oh well, such is life, I guess. Time to move on.

McKinley is 5....

These are just a few of the birthday party pics. We threw her a luau and she loved every minute of it. It was truly a bittersweet moment. My baby is 5 and starting school in 2 weeks....

Happy Birthday Sweet Girl!

Pictures of dog attack.

McKinley was attacked by a family dog on Saturday. These are the pictures, taken on Sunday. She is doing fine and is happy and healthy.

My beautiful girls!

This is just a teaser of what their photo session looks like!! I am one proud mommy! I believe they are the most gorgeous girls in the world!

24 years later......

Well I'm alittle late in writing this, but we had computer problems, so its ok. Wednesday (the 17th) I turned 24. As you can see my family threw me a suprise luau. It was all in all a great birthday this year. I am very fortunate and blessed to have such wonderful family and friends. I was showered with lots of love and gifts.

As I'm writing this, I look back on my 24 years of life and am just amazed at God's love for me. I dont deserve any of his love or blessings, but nonetheless he loves me and showers me with it. I am so thankful for another year of life. I can only prayer for more to come!!

The girls...

The other weekend we were at the park by the river and here are some of the pictures. It was seriously needed, sometime relaxing by the water with the children. Hope you enjoy!

Happy Birthday to Our Little Boy!

I just want to write a short little blog wishing our little boy up in Heaven "Happy Birthday". Little Brandon went to see his Lord at 39 days old in 2006. I didnt get a chance to meet this little boy but I'm very proud to love his daddy. His daddy loves and misses him so very much.

Its funny how someone so small that you've never met can touch your life so much. I love that little boy like he is my own. Its amazing how Gods love has no boundries. Death cant put a hold on love. I've seen pictures. I've heard stories. I've seen videos. Oh how I wish I could hear his little voice call for his daddy. Tomorrow would be Brandon's 3rd birthday and I just wanted him to know that I love him! I wish I could be his other mommy. Hold him and love him and his sisters could play with him, but I know he is in a much better place. Happier than we could ever be here. He will see his Daddy again. I'll get to meet him and so will his sisters one day. Until then, Happy Birthday Baby Boy!! We love you!!
