Our girls

Kira and Aiko. I love these girls.

They have been together since they were 5 and 6 years old. They look completely different now! 13 and 14 year olds. Time has flown by.

I hope they grow up happy! I sure know how happy they have made Tod and I!!!

Aleida

Since I have not had a computer for almost two weeks I have been lost. Catching up now for two days is tiresome and straining, and now I am deeply sad to hear the news of Aleida. I found Aleida (RicanLaw) through Flickr and was amazed at her work and her writting on her blog. I found her post as she was expressing her disgust about player haters. How she handled their pettyness stayed with me for a long time. She dismissed their words and focused on her family and her ability as a strong Puerto Rican woman. She inspired me and made me smile.

I'm truly sad. My heart hurts for her family.

Mini vacation

So tomorrow we're heading off to camp with Tod's cousin and wife Mark and Miss. I love love love them! It's a short trip but we're so excited to leave tomorrow. Kira will be at a concert with her Nina and so we will have Livie and Aiko with us. Tod will be fishing and Miss and I will be hanging, not sure what Mark and Jeremy will be doing! ha!!!! I'm bringing a few WIP's (Work In Progress Spread) to see if I can finish up some layouts that have been lingering in my bin for a while now. Last week I finished up one layout that Kira and I started together about 4 years ago! ha!!! finishing touches were Stickles and some pop dots- just need to journal and done DONE! HA!!

Wish it was a longer trip but till they get their own trailer, we will have to have short trips- but still, we'll have a blast! Miss always cracks me up and I love her dearly!!! muah!!!

Right at this moment

When I see this picture of Kira I can't get over how fast she has grown up. It seems like just yesterday we were watching Disney movies OOOOVER AND OOOVER & talking about things that pertained to a tween's life.

Now all I can see is a glimpse of what she will look like when she's all grown up. I adore her and miss the little girl she used to be but I'm madly in love with the young beautiful woman she is becoming.

She'll ALWAYS be my little Kira Bo Bira

Dear Diary....

It seems that my emails are lost in portal hell and Janice no longer gets my important emails informing her of the boring details of my life. blah blah. So I can peak in on her life at her blog. THE WOMAN KILLS ME. Her blog about per Project Runway Losers! HA!!!! LOVE THAT!!!

Life seems to still be moving along as I (and my house) recoop from a baaaaaaaaaaad tummy virus. Livie STILL isnt 100%. This last week was a complete MUTHA!
when we were all sick the girls toilet broke, (Thank God Tod is the man he is and was able to fix it) then Friday afternoon starting my first of 80 thousand loads of laundry the washer broke.....ever have weeks like this? Thank God Tod is the kind of guy that doesnt get upset abput things, he just fixes stuff and moves on. I love that..... I on the other hand would still be in the laundry room crying and kicking the washer! Then Sunday we were all too sick still and weak to go to Tod's company picnic at the Boardwalk, so we missed that. that sucked!

Good news is Kira BooBira is back home and we couldnt be happier. We have missed her so so so so so soooooooooooo much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She had a blast at Gold Country with Kendra and her family. She seems to have grown even taller and got even prettier! HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE!? Her flauless skin, her beautiful eyes, and hair!!! Wished I looked like that when I was 14 1/2!!!!

Myoko came by the house yesterday to pack things up for college. Man, I will miss that girl. Seeing her face makes me happy. lol! She kills me! She can fustrate me to the point of breaking, and then when I see her and she talks to me she is so sweet and kind and a gentle, loving, giving soul. I hope her journey is happy as she leaves home. I love her and will miss her dearly. I pray for her daily. She's a beautiful girl inside and out and I have complete confidence in her she will go far! I just want her to be happy!!

My Desktop

Our new computers at work have been installed. I have missing files and yaddah yaddah, who cares about that, that will all get corrected soon enough. This is my new desktop picture.

I miss her more then I could ever express to anyone. I miss her laugh, her voice, her smell, her hugs and her beautiful face. She makes me so proud, she makes me so happy to be her momma.

I'm so blessed the Lord picked her to be my baby girl.

(This is picture is Jason and Kira- Jason is Kira's younger brother- WHO I FLIPPEN LOVE!!!!!)

I can't wait till she's hugging me again!
