In the beginning..

Do you ever wonder, why God brings certain people into your life? Does anyone ever question why we cant choose our family? I know that sounds harsh, but really..I just find it hard to understand, how some people live for the drama, how they can be so selfish and just mean. And get enjoyment out of seeing people hurt. It's something that I may never understand. But the daily battle I am fighting right now, it to rise above them, and be the better person. But my flesh is screaming for me to react and do the easier thing..I might not be like my husband and children who are social butterflies and can talk to just any stranger. I am more laid back and reserved and I like to people watch. But if you ask my friends, they will let you know how passionate I am about my relationships. But people judge too quickly, instead of giving people the benefit of the doubt. We are supposed to be Godly examples to people, and act in a way that is pleasing to God, to where a complete stranger can see us, and think "Wow, is that how amazing life is, to have God in it".. I ask myself, how my actions portray that Godly life.

I think back to the beginning of my child hood. I was the only girl with 2 brothers. And we used to have so much fun, we were very close and did everything together. And had the best imaginations. I remember us wearing my head bands over our eyes and pretending we had special glasses that could see thru any wall. And we built big forts with blankets and would play all day in it. And now we are all grown up, and married with kids dealing with life. And those relationships we had are no longer there. And it is heartbreaking. So, I want to know, as a mom who has children, how can I prevent my own children from the heartache? How can I guarantee that my kids will always love each other and be there for each other, even when they are grown and married with kids? Is there a guarantee?

Love of my life..

This is my sweet husband Trav.. We have been married for 12 years. He is my companion, best friend, my one true love. No not everyday is sweet love. But because we are devoted to each other, we fight for what we have. He is the one person who knows how to cheer me up. The one, who can hold me in his arms, and make me feel like no one in the world could ever hurt me. And for this I am truely blessed.

Little People

So these little people are my reason for getting up each day..Ciera was brought into my life when she was 6 years old. Has not been easy, but she is like my very own. My twins Aaron and Cameron were born when I was very young, but they are such blessings and can make me smile when I am feeling down. Definitely momma's boys. And Jasmine is my sweet heart, my little mini me. You will never see her frowning, and this girl gives the best hugs and kisses EVER. My children are a true gift from God. And I pray that they never go a day with doubt about how proud and how much they are loved by Trav and I.
