Where did the time go?

It seems like only yesterday I was coming home from the hospital with a tiny little special package. I was 18 and he was "just born". Today he is 17 (almost 18), already done with high school, and on his way to college. Children are a special gift from God that always seem to grow up way too fast. It's a bittersweet moment for me because he has become an independent responsible young man, but I miss the little boy that depended on me for pretty much everything. I am proud of him and still praying for him. I guess I will be for the rest of my life. It comes with the territory. Prayer keeps me sane. I too depend on God to protect my children and guide them in the right direction. 
Although I still have another little boy to take care of, I feel even my time with him is flying by. He's 9 and already thinking about being in high school! (Stopping now to take a deep breath and a sip of my coffee)... Time waits for no one. Ain't that the truth?  
Kindergarten Graduation
Congratulations to my sweet baby boy who is now a graduate...and to all of the Class of 2013...may God continue to bless your lives and guide you to becoming responsible young men and women!


Do you have a little one that is growing up way too fast? Enjoy every single moment you have because they will be all grown up before you know it!

American Idol in the Making?

My sweet child loves to play the guitar. He basically taught himself how to play watching videos on YouTube.  I'm so proud of him and everything he has accomplished so far. He is a very responsible young man who is about to graduate from High School. He has worked very hard to meet his goals and we encourage him to continue with the same inspiration each day of his life.

He recently began uploading videos to YouTube and I wanted to share them with you. Please show him your support by subscribing to his channel and liking his videos. Thank you!



If you're a parent who loves your children, you'll understand. And if you're not a parent yet...you will!

It's like magic...

Getting a haircut, that is! You go into the hair salon feeling "blah" and by the time they are done with you, you feel like a million dollars $ $ $ $ $ !!!! That was me today! It seems I've unknowingly started a birthday "tradition" (if you can call it that). For the past few years I've been going to get a hair cut during the month of my birthday. And in case you were wondering when that is...it's in October!

I didn't really plan it, but it all worked out. At least I think it did...


Feeling like a million bucks,

A year older

October 12

What a special day. I celebrated my 36th birthday... whoa...did I just say 36th? I'm no spring chicken! I am very grateful though because I have been truly blessed. My family came over and we had a dinner celebration. Thank you Lord for allowing me to turn one year older!

My sweet grandpa also turned 86 this month (Oct 16th)
Delicious cupcakes baked by my Mom

Thank you, Mom!


I'm his favorite! (Shh...don't tell the others)

Even my uncle joined us for the special celebration!

I have been truly blessed!
 With a happy heart, I say goodnight! Until next time...
