We are so blessed! I am so thankful to have daughters to give to daily and a husband to love daily. Zoe is growing so fast. Everyday I am amazed of what the Lord is doing in our lives. Enjoy the time with your children, teach them the word of God and show them how to live it.

I am blessed to have a very high calling. This calling is called being "Home". Being a mother is the definition of being "home", but not in the literal sense all the time. It is not the place that you are in that makes you home. YOU are the PLACE. A mother should be the one who all can gather around and receive the word to go back to their vocations encouraged and strengthened. She is the one who empowers her children and husband in continual repentance and forgiveness. What a blessing that we have! I get to repent and receive forgiveness from when I wake up in the morning and think of everything that didn't get done from the day before to night time when my newborn wants to be awake until sunrise. God is continually teaching me patience and long suffering. These are just a few fruits of the spirit that we get to enjoy daily. Noel ... one month old!
Noel Martinez is getting big so fast! She will be five months on Sunday! Time flies when you're having fun. Azalia, Evana, Nadia are wearing the skirts that Grandma Jo Martinez made for Zoe, Azalia, and Evana a little over 2 years ago. I miss her. But she is in Paradise with my Saviour. Life is precious. I am so blessed to have so many people in our life. I am thankful for as many gifts I can receive. Zoe is becoming such a blessing, a loving sister and a very big helper. We got a trampoline! the girls love it!
I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth. What does this mean? I believe that God has made me and all creatures; that He has given me my body and soul, eyes, ears, and all my members, my reason and all my senses, and still preserves them; also clothing and shoes, meat and drink, house and home, wife and children, fields, cattle, and all my goods; that He richly and daily provides me with all that I need to support this body and life; that He defends me against all danger, and guards and protects me from all evil; and all this purely out of fatherly, divine goodness and mercy, without any merit or worthiness in me; for all which it is my duty to thank and praise, to serve and obey Him. This is most certainly true. (Luther's Small Catechism) Tomatoes from today! fun with mommy picking tomatoes Zucchinis that got away! Oh, my!
