Let me LOVE you, let me LOVE you...

"Love
 is the condition
 in which
 the happiness
 of another person
 is essential 
to your own"

In one week my husband and myself will be celebrating 7 years of Marriage. and let me tell you, it has been the MOST Beautiful experience. Some nights, when its quiet, still and my husband is lying next to me peacefully sleeping. I rummage through my brain, and pull up the most amazing experiences from our first year of marriage. those memories are all so funny to me, JUST so young and inexperienced, I remember this one time i made Grilled chicken sandwiches for Jose and My cousin Joshua. even though Jose kept telling me "Cecily i can make them" in which i replied "I got this" in reality heck no i didn't " Got this" haha. Jose and Joshua faces sitting at our dining table trying to force themselves to eat this Grilled chicken sandwich.. i will never forget that moment of pure disgust, wash across their face. SO funny!  now that i think about it,they never said anything about those sandwiches.. Or the time Jose was working on this Ford focus we had, he was under the car and forgot to unplug the battery. THAT was seriously a life or death situation. No not really but i had no idea, i jut remember freaking out, thinking he was fried to death. In our first year of Marriage we lost our first baby, whom which is in heaven now. We brought home our first born Lucas, THAT alone was the most life transforming event..Once Jose was holding Lucas in his arms, and he found a comfortable way to hold Lucas to get him to stop crying. Because he was the BIGGEST cry Baby. he literally cried and cried and cried. Jose found this rocking position where he would lay Lucas's head in the palm of his left hand and his butt  in the palm of his right hang. while bouncing Lucas this way it seamed to instantly cure the crying.. while doing that, the house was so quiet and then i sneezed and it scared Lucas as he flinched Jose almost dropped him. Probably the single most terrifying situation with our newborn. I think about these things and i could not be thankful enough for the Husband God has given me.. it doesn't Matter how we ended up together, the fact is God made it happen.. and is continuing to make it happen..
Through this Journey, it has brought happiness, sadness, fear, anger, joy every emotion you can think of. I wouldn't be the person i am today if it weren't for Jose. He is SUCH a hard worker, constantly on the move. takes care of things in the MOST manliest of ways (Ladies you know what i mean) He doesn't wear the weight of the world on his shoulders he lets God take care of it.he doesn't stress about the little things. he always believes there will be a way. He motivates me, pushes me to try harder. He looks at me, i believe the way Jesus looks at us.. that might sound bizarre to most of you. He Loves deeply, he looks past the outer junk in people. to him its the inside of a person that matters.. And for that i know that only God has brought him to me,, He is a man, he is a human and not perfect. but he is perfect to and for me. 
He loves me even when i am crazy needy, and require 100% of his attention haha. And i Love him for that! We have 4 boys now, oh i know what you are thinking, "i'm crazy huh". believe me i ask myself  that same question, quiet regularly...I love it, the boys are a challenge i mean what child inst. Our boys have taught us together SO much. Sometimes its so overwhelming to think a toddler can put us in our place. haha cause they have plenty of times. Our oldest is 6 now and that kid is a genius, seriously creative and SUCH a fast learner. Our second son, is the tough stuff. he tackles obstacles head on, he LOVES to love people. so compassion is his strong suit. our 3rd son is the challenger, keeps us on our toes. but is seriously the Joker, loves to laugh and be happy. our 4th son is the fighter, he has  NF1 which i have explained in my earlier blogs. hes definitely an over comer, Small but Mighty.. 
SO as we come to our 7th year of marriage i can not be more thankful for the Man i have and the Boys we are raising together. Here's to 70 years more babe. I love you!

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...
