When you get that gut feeling that something just is not right it's not always easy to accept. After waiting 31 days for my "red headed cousin" to come to town I finally gave in and took a test.. yes a pregnancy test. All along thinking NO!NO!NO!   Over the past 5 months I had become OK with only having 2 children, so much so that I was planning on having Jorge fixed {I know, he's not a dog} in the next month or so. Since having Juliana, Jorge and I had said we were done. I convinced him to wait until she was 2 to do anything permanent just to be sure that I truly was OK with it. Over that time period my prayer was always the same, " Dear God, if it is your will for me to have another child then I leave it completely in your hands." This meant that it HAD to be an accident because I was not going to try to have a baby and I honestly thought that it would not ever "accidentally" happen.   Well....it did.   I called in Jorge to tell him ...

Hi friends! I know I have been such a slacker! I haven't posted in over a year! Shame.on.me. Lots has happened in the past year, mostly in my own spiritual growth. I feel like a completely different person from where I was 1 year ago. It was a tough year for me, a lot of lessons learned but I am all the more thankful for them. My baby boy is 4 now! I have no idea where the time has gone. He started pre-school in the fall and he is loving it. My baby girl is 19 months..no wait.. I have no idea how old she is. The months thing always gets me. She's 1, simply 1 and simply a little diva. She's the boss of the house, nothing gets past her. Jorge just hot back from Afghanistan last night. Let me tell you, the past month in a half was extremely hard for me. Being alone with 2 kids and raging hormones is not a good thing. I learned patience and self control through LOTS of prayer. I don't know how you mamas do it for 6 months,a year or heaven forbid longer. Unfortunatel...
