Grateful for God's blessing...

Being able to celebrate Mother's Day, will never be taken for granted by me. After years of trying to conceive...and finally being blessed with a healthy child...I truly cherish this blessing. I know what it is like to yearn and beg God for a child....and to see people celebrating their motherhood while my heart was breaking.

And my heart still breaks for so many who have yet to have children in their lives....it feels like yesterday that I ached for the same....and though I am truly grateful for the answer I received....I pray every night for the childless mother's who are still hoping...






So grateful am I,
Shiny

Hill Country Spring 2011

We pretty much LOVE the Hill Country....and take any and every opportunity to go there.
This weekend, we went to New Braunfels, to the Wildlife Ranch and ate at the Gristmill. Then we hung out in Austin at our usual spots...went kayaking and ate like crazy...
I loved every cotton pickin' minute of it!

Here's a few pics of our fun weekend...

Thomas Family....

Susan Chacko and I were friends from the get go in high school...if you don't count the small issue of me calling her a really ugly name...
