My heart aches,,,

“We think sometimes that poverty is only being hungry, naked and homeless. The poverty of being unwanted, unloved and uncared for is the greatest poverty. We must start in our own homes to remedy this kind of poverty.” MT



I cant believe its been 5 years since i first laid eyes on those precious little faces. i remember stepping off the plane onto Africa soil and loving every moment of it. the air,the smell,the weather,the presence of the people. it was all so different but i loved it. when i tell people about how beautiful Africa really is they call me crazy..Africa is not all like the jungles, its not this hot,dry waist land.

Its so beautiful!

Mountains,rolling sandy hills, animals, Beautiful people,markets,music,food.My most favorite part of being in Africa was being able to love on the children, so many orphans. it broke my heart especially the ones that are sick but have no idea what there future in tales.being able to hug and love on those children drastically changed my life..No longer was i this selfish,needy person..Instead selfless and compassionate..

How much is TOO much..

So in my family there are A LOT of Alcoholics, and sometimes its just too much for me..So what do you do about taking what those people say, while there in that state of mind, with a grain of salt? Because sometimes i just want to straight up sucker punch them in the face! Dont get me wrong now, im not opposed to drinking ..Having a drink with friends and family is fine with me, BUT drinking everyday to get drunk just doesn't cut it..And i hate the excuse, i work all week, im tired so i deserve a drink. okay yes it may be true you may work so hard you feel a drink will calm your nerves but seriously get drunk every time?!? Then i have those in the family that get drunk and... A. Talk a lot of crap about people non stop B.could care less what anyone is talking about and want the attention on themselves C.Repeat themselves over and over D.become very abusive to anyone an...

Can i get a snow day from this snow day...

Never fails, Texas weather always puts a damper in my plans. Tuesday called for dental appointments for the little ones (not in school) a dine in lunch date and maybe a trip to target.. after all 3 kids are a piece of cake VS 5 and why not take advantage. Buuuuuuut NO! Texas decided to shut down its entire system due to dangerous weather conditions.. It literally was like 70 degrees yesterday, my kids were playing outside in shorts. in shorts you guys!  BAM today its 25 degrees, sleet, snow and icy roads. Oy snow days are not for the weak. having to entertain 4 children who cant play outside alllllll day and throw in a 6 month old who is the sweetest cutest spoiled little thing who likes, scratch that DEMANDS to be carried all hours of the day. My older two who are in school kicked nap time to the curb once they started school for obvious reasons. So getting them to nap along with the younger siblings is like pulling teeth.. haha seriously!  Id like a snow day from this ...

"Thats just the way my family is"

    I'd like to begin with saying,                           "Don't let people treat you poorly because you love them".      In the past 7 years i have learned a lot about "Family dynamics" from merging my family with my husbands. It has been an interesting 7 years let me tell you.. Some things i have learned about peoples view on "family dynamics"  is they are not always the best thing AND i really believe people believe they are doing well when they treat someone the way they treat them.. With that being said, i have learned a lot of what to do and what not to do..       Let me tell you, i was raised in a home that exhibited love, weather it was love through discipline or genuine love.. I can not remember a specific time i went without communicating how i felt about a certain thing or situation. Growing up in a house full of sisters one older than me and four youn...
