I am a follower of Jesus. I love life and have been blessed with the most hardworking, loving husband and six great kids. I created this blog to chronicle the things I have been learning, to share stories and pictures with family and friends who are interested, and to hopefully pass down a love of Jesus to my babes.

The joys of parenting

Ezekiel's 1st ride on the carousel...and Lani at the speed boat races.
After digging coins out of my duffel bag (i.e purse) we sent the kids to the circus. Ezekiel headed straight for the horse track (i.e carousel) and Lani cruised to the lake for boat races (i.e coin operated boat). Just a little note, the kids each loved there choice until the coins were inserted and the rides went into motion. A pictures worth a thousand words.
Bambi and friends in our future garden...
So... normal morning...opening the blinds, getting the kids in their seats ready for breakfast (cheesy eggs, cinnamon toast and an apple) I look over and see a shadow in the corner of my eye...Startled!! I see Penny (our three legged deer friend) and Buck (Penny's BFF). After Dave and I spent some time in the yard creating our Vegetable Garden for summer, the deer smelled the freshness of the dirt and decided to see what's "growin".
This weekend we will attend the Flower and Garden show in Seattle where I will specifically discuss my "beef" with one of the experts. Stay tuned for our future Garden security and surveillance system. :)

In Memory Of...
Thank you Katie and Sami for giving us this tree to plant in remembrance of our little angel.
God Bless our little angel up in heaven with Jesus !!!! There isn't a day that goes by, not a moment when I can look at my children and think about the other babes that we lost. It was just over 3 months ago that we lost him or her. We have two beautiful children with us here, but we also have another beautiful child waiting for us up in heaven. I pray for them as I pray for my Ezekiel and Lani, no matter what they're still our child concieved in love in which we just never got to meet. Jesus gives our children that we've lost hugs and kisses for us, I have to believe this because I pray to him to. He listens to our prayers, this my heart does know.

Haiti
May we all rejoice in the blessing it is to live in America, land of the free. May we further rejoice in the blessing of the Cross. Freed from sin, by the only One who saves.
Our Crazy Familia
We are the parents...
Of...Ezekiel Giles aka (Ricardo or Zeke)
And...Emmalani Grace aka (Lani babes)
Although Lani looks like she can walk here, she has no desire to take one step forward. She is however a crawling machine! She's been crawling for awhile now and she always has something in her mouth as she moves along. Her favorite word right now is "HI" she says hi to anyone and everyone in her deep voice. :)
