The first signs of spring are finally here new beginnings birds chirping hints of warmer days. As March comes to an end I think of all the challenges I have faced with my family this winter. What lies ahead we often think of how and what this new season will bring for me and my boys. God has blessed us with a new kitten named Theodora who is the new addition to our family. She is so pretty and so temperamental all at once. It is interesting how animals adjust to their environment with little or no resistance in comparison to us humans. We either adjust or everyone hears about it….hehehe. This spring I have been faced with the challenge of looking for a new apartment oh what a task it has been not because we have to move but because it has been a challenge to conform to not having my own home. Renting has proven to be the hardest challenge since relocating back to the city this past year. As I reflect on how, this Spring I will miss the beautiful flowers right outside the wi...

Hello all and I anticipate that you all had a wonderful Valentine’s, and Presidents Day. I was blessed to have to work on Valentine’s Day I mean really so many people losing their jobs I truly felt good to say I had to work. Why did I work well I was overseeing a dream for many of us who much desired a new and IMProved IT at work ...woo wee!! Except it took longer than I suspected and I was late to my family tradition Valentine Fondue. Although I was able to complete all my Valentine Day cards and mini scrapbooks that were my gifts this year. They came our great too bad I do not know how to post some of my many creations…..one day I tell you I will be Blogg savvy! So I finally got to the real business at hand…Fondue. A few years ago I am happy to say I began the tradition of dipping strawberries, pound cake, granny smith apples (yum my FAV), and pineapples into our melted chocolate. Over the years we have added a few more fruits the newest fruit being the banana wow ...
So it has been quite a busy winter for me and the boys thus I have neglected my Blog my apologies. Where do I begin I suppose with my blessings and I will count them one by one so here they go: -Matt loves playing his 3 instruments, electric/acoustic guitar, xylophone, and drums. I’m so proud of him he even played at church…shhhh don’t tell him I told. -Lucas is loving his new music extended day class and was upset he had to miss a day of music class, “Mom I was about to play a new instrument when you picked me up” and here I thought I was keeping their best interest at heart because of the bad weather…sigh -Ava my sweet baby girl, oops I meant dog was sick and just miserable for a day or two. - I met a really incredible woman who has turned out to be an awesome friend who I connected with instantaneously and went on a Martin Luther King shopping spree with the girls….. We didn’t spend too much money and of course we needed All those supplies right girls?…..wink wink. -I was...
Have you ever wanted a week to end so you could just go home and do nothing well that was me after surviving this cold 9 degree day that is finally over...brrrrrrrrr. Well this week seemed to start out pretty darn good I mean it could not get better than this: First I met an awesome individual and I cropped....well actually I did a little of this and barely any of that but one thing I did was make a friend for life. Secondly I drove the boys to my mom's apartment and went to a love filled day of valentine creations at Ini's apartment with the girls!!!!!!!! Laughter oh the laughter was just endless.....oh the toys I played with I was like a kid in a candy store both days what a blessing I was so unfocused everywhere I turned more more and more....creative this weekend I was NOT but God showed me a valuable lesson this weekend. Life is so valuable that we must live it to the fullest...never stop to ponder if anything that makes you happy is worth your time because it is. F...
So I decided I wanted to see what all this blogging is about so thus here I am....In the world of the unknown. Until this new adventure I was under the impression that I was computer savvy or NOT but thanks to my 15 year baby Matt viola here I go! I can only take credit for the background because I found it pretty easy after I emailed my pal ...thanks Diana (I guess two wonderful minds think alike I suppose)wink wink....my fellow pink lady scrapper she recommended the same sight I had discovered a few minutes earlier. So together my computer genius son Matt and I finally figured it out...well somewhat. You will see some changes to the sight in days coming as I learn more things so please visit with me again. Today I spent a quiet evening with my family at Mom's and Cindy's celebrating El Dia De Los Tres Rejes (3 Kings Day) a Puerto Rican tradition that my sweet aunt Gia began and my mom has tried to continue. I love my Mom because she taught me about the importance o...
