Rain rain go away

       Hello all..... God bless and good day. Hope all is well... what a day.. 
         We in the Pocono Mountains are going through a real fall day. Omg.. it was wind, rain and leaves all over the place. Its about 48 degrees and it is the true meaning of a fall day. The pocono Mountain's is known for the beautiful seasons we have. Its gorgeous all year around.
        Not much to discuss except the fact that im reading the book of Revelation in the bible..... what a challenge ...

Baby girl is grown

Hello all... greetings from a friend a far. Hopefully you are having a blessed day in unity with your family...
Today im going to share a picture of my grandaughter. She is 5 years old and growing up so fast. Well yesterday we lost our first tooth.. what an event. The beginning of trouble. I laugh at my daughter. I told her once that all we do bad to our parents , we pay with our kids. So its needless to say she has her hands full...

My inspiration

Good day everyone... I hope that with the Lords help you have had a blessed day...
Although my days are tougher than usual, Im happy to just have a day.
The picture Im sharing is my mom and myself along with my auntie. She is the oldest of all my mothers family... but my mother is my inspiration and every moment I get to spend with her is joyous to me... I had went to Ecuador 2 years ago and decided to go again this year... I enjoy staying with my mom and dad. There is nothing like being at home with your parents. Im trying to enjoy them as long as I can... I had the unfortunate opportunity to have been there when one of my cousins mother past.. we had to take a 4 hour ride to a part of Ecuador call Manta... Although we went for a funeral, an unfortunate event, it was nice to see my family.... we got to walk the beach and eat lunch there... it just reminded me how important my mother is to me... her struggles to give my sister and I a better life are well appreciate....

Lord Thank You

Wanted to thank God for all in my life...

Its a beautiful day....

    Good morning to all.. I hope you are waking up strong and healthy and full of life regardless of how you really feel.
   Today I want to share some exciting news. My most loved cousin's daughter is getting married. Its going to be in Ecuador. I have a huge family so I am happy to go and see them... My children will be going with me and its their first trip out of the country. We are all very excited...

                       Hello to all. I hope that everyone has had a bless week.  It has been a tough one for me but nonetheless a positive outcome as always. My father up above must still need me here because my job is not done. At least that is what I keep telling myself.
                          I was ill and went for a check-up. I was having some terrible pains in places there should be no pain unless you are a woman and you are having your monthly visitor, but this visitor was just knocking my door and never enter. So I decided the pain was unbearable and went to see my Dr. Upon completion of the visit and after all the blood work and the ultrasound/sonograms they found out that I hit 40... My body decided to have 2 cysts on the left and 2 fibroids and the biggest of all was 1 rupture cysts. As if this wasn't cause for alarm I still had no cycle. The biggest concern for my Dr. was to find out were the rupture cyst was. I was not bleeding as I should be and I have a high wbc (White blood count).. These means I have a real bad infection and the blood that's in me can be killing me. Poisoning the rest of my body... I took some antibiotics which I am still on and I have a follow up visit with her next Wednesday but, I am still here.. i'm pain but nonetheless still here. Don't you just love your heavenly father for keeping us under his wings all the time. You see I learn very fast to really put my faith in the person to whom I pray to and speak about to other's. It is so easy to tell people to have faith but when it really comes down to it , can you really say you have the courage to do so. I did not want to be a hypocrite to my cause and therefore I have decided to do just that. Put my trouble in his hands and let him lead me to were he feels I need to go to get healed. Now this doesn't mean I am not taking my meds or seeing the Dr. I didn't say my diagnosed was stupidity ,but what I meant was that I shall not worry myself to death any longer. I have still a full life to live and as long as I have it I shall do just that. Tomorrow is never promised to any of us. It may sound silly but really believe in this words" Don't put off tomorrow what you can do today".. Live life, like is your last one cause really it might just be....

My love

    I am thrill to see the blessings that my heavenly father has provided me with... you will see my beautiful grandaughter and my handsome nephew... I had the privilidge of watching them this weekend and they were dancing in the front porch. It just reminded me of my daughter and my son...

I'm Still Alive...hahaha

   Where do I begin... I want to first thank my father up above my dear God for always sending me his blessings and keeping in his grace.. All the good and bad that happens is always to prepare you for the next step in life.. I have learn to understand this. Although it has taken me time.
   I had a lot of events take place this year as I had written on a previous post of mine. I just never had the time to catch up. So I am going to try...
     First i am going to share my trip to Ecuador.. Now this was in November. I had went to see my mom whom I had not seen in quite a while. I had not been to Ecuador since I was 13 years of age. I am now 40 so it has been a long time. She was a bit ill and I wanted to surprise her but in fact I was surprise because around this time hurricane Sandy decided to land by us and cause destruction everywhere...
Here are a few pictures of my husband and myself ..

This was taken in the Malecon in Ecuador

It was so hot down there. Everything was so cheap the food was delicious.. We ate like pigs.. My mom eating all the crabs she can fit...

These are the best parents a girl like me can have... I know we all feel the same about our parents but I just am bless to still have them here with me..

                                           I am truly a daddy's girl .. Always will be

                           And my beautiful mother... She is the reason I am so gorgeous...lol

My husband and my parents... He is such a wonderful guy. I am very lucky my parents adore him..

 And last but not least, I found out that my brother has 2 little girls.. So here I am with my brother whom I had never met before this encounter and I have 2 little nieces...


       My family just gets bigger... Its the circle of life. I truly believe. I had a wonderful time and I have all my family down in Ecuador to thank for making it memorable for me and my husband. It was his first time out of the country ever. I am glad he also got an opportunity to go an enjoy this journey with me.
   I will post some other stuff that has happen tommorow. I am trying to catch up.. Thanks for taking the time to share with me and god bless you today ,tommorow ,and always...

Just wanted to share a recent picture of my grandaughter...  She is now 4 years old which means she is 15....lol

  It has been so long since my last blog..ill blog tommorow. I  just wanted to say hello and goodnight......

Inauguration 2013

 Hello everyone... Hope all is well. Here in Pa is about 8 degrees... Very cold..Freezing like temperatures.
If you stand outside for more than minutes at a time you can get frost bite. That's how cold it is.


I, like most people ,watch the Inauguration of President Obama...

It was a wonderful thing to watch the Inauguration of a President. I was excited to see the performances and to see all the people that have come out to support such an event.

It was such a nice to see the Inauguration taking place on Dr. Martin Luther King's Day....It shows how far this country has come and all that was sacrifice for the opportunities that are possible because of such courage........ We thank all those that marched and put their lives on the line for equality.

The beautiful and talented Kelly Clarkson sang her song although it might have been so cold... We thank her.

And embarrassed by Beyonce and her lip-synching of our star spangled banner...

I know that not always you will be at your best but the thing is when you choose to be a singer as your career and that is what you are paid to do, then do your job. Regardless if you mess up. We are willing to forgive and understand someone messing up at their job because we do it all the time than to be deceived by one we trust. I had always thought of her as a talented young woman that need not to exploit herself with all the sexuality that she promotes within her videos.A true musician that loves music would listen and not see. It is hard to take her seriously as a role model for young aspiring singers or other young women of today. We do not want to teach our children that you have to be any other than yourself and that our best is always good enough....... 

Kudos to Alicia Keys... 

She looks radiant as ever and sang beautifully

And who can leave behind Jennifer Hudson....

I know I forgot some but these are the one that stuck out the most to me.... Thank you all and I hope you have a great night...

True Love...

A tribute to the King...

Martin Luther King, Jr., (January 15, 1929-April 4, 1968) was born Michael Luther King, Jr., but later had his name changed to Martin. His grandfather began the family's long tenure as pastors of the Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, serving from 1914 to 1931; his father has served from then until the present, and from 1960 until his death Martin Luther acted as co-pastor. Martin Luther attended segregated public schools in Georgia, graduating from high school at the age of fifteen; he received the B. A. degree in 1948 from Morehouse College, a distinguished Negro institution of Atlanta from which both his father and grandfather had graduated. After three years of theological study at Crozer Theological Seminary in Pennsylvania where he was elected president of a predominantly white senior class, he was awarded the B.D. in 1951. With a fellowship won at Crozer, he enrolled ingraduate studies at Boston University, completing his residence for the doctorate in 1953 and receiving the degree in 1955. In Boston he met and married Coretta Scott, a young woman of uncommon intellectual and artistic attainments. Two sons and two daughters were born into the family.

In 1954, Martin Luther King became pastor of the Dexter Avenue Baptist Church in Montgomery, Alabama. Always a strong worker for civil rights for members of his race, King was, by this time, a member of the executive committee of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the leading organization of its kind in the nation. He was ready, then, early in December, 1955, to accept the leadership of the first great Negro nonviolent demonstration of contemporary times in the United States, the bus boycott described by Gunnar Jahn in his presentation speech in honor of the laureate. The boycott lasted 382 days. On December 21, 1956, after the Supreme Court of the United States had declared unconstitutional the laws requiring segregation on buses, Negroes and whites rode the buses as equals. During these days of boycott, King was arrested, his home was bombed, he was subjected to personal abuse, but at the same time he emerged as a Negro leader of the first rank.

In 1957 he was elected president of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, an organization formed to provide new leadership for the now burgeoning civil rights movement. The ideals for this organization he took from Christianity; its operational techniques from Gandhi. In the eleven-year period between 1957 and 1968, King traveled over six million miles and spoke over twenty-five hundred times, appearing wherever there was injustice, protest, and action; and meanwhile he wrote five books as well as numerous articles. In these years, he led a massive protest in Birmingham, Alabama, that caught the attention of the entire world, providing what he called a coalition of conscience. and inspiring his "Letter from a Birmingham Jail", a manifesto of the Negro revolution; he planned the drives in Alabama for the registration of Negroes as voters; he directed the peaceful march on Washington, D.C., of 250,000 people to whom he delivered his address, "l Have a Dream", he conferred with President John F. Kennedy and campaigned for President Lyndon B. Johnson; he was arrested upwards of twenty times and assaulted at least four times; he was awarded five honorary degrees; was named Man of the Year by Time magazine in 1963; and became not only the symbolic leader of American blacks but also a world figure.

At the age of thirty-five, Martin Luther King, Jr., was the youngest man to have received the Nobel Peace Prize. When notified of his selection, he announced that he would turn over the prize money of $54,123 to the furtherance of the civil rights movement.

On the evening of April 4, 1968, while standing on the balcony of his motel room in Memphis, Tennessee, where he was to lead a protest march in sympathy with striking garbage workers of that city, he was assassinated.


  All we can say today is thank you.....

Good morning everyone...
           It's good to wake up this morning and thank the Lord for another day... Some of us did not make it past last night, so having another day in this world is a blessing to me. Although i'm in so much pain.
The muscle around my neck and shoulder is throbbing. I thought I just slept wrong but I was so mistaken. This would be my fourth day feeling that pain. Nonetheless its another day.

         I'm excited to see the inauguration today. Also happy Dr. Martin Luther King day. Not a lot of people realize that this man not only change history for american negro but all of us that are classified as minority's.There are so many things that I can blog about but I will be here all week.... Not that he doesn't deserve it.

         It's around 20 degrees here in Pennsylvania.. Not as cold as we would expect it to be around this time of year. I guess I am grateful for that . The cold and I are not good friends. I'm just recovering from the flu- like symptoms I have had the last two weeks.
       Congrats. to the Baltimore Ravens and the San Francisco 49ers in a great fight for the superbowl...
  I'm in the east coast so I would be cheering for the Ravens...but good luck to both teams.. It truly doesn't matter what team wins because my team is out.. My poor Jets just cant get it right. But better luck next time.
      I hope that your day is full of joy and prosperity today and have a good day off from work or just enjoy your children home from school another day....

Hello Friends...........

    A New Year is how I should start. So much has already happened but, glad to have seen the old year past us by....

    God bless everyone. That's first on my list. I haven't blogged in months. So much has go on that I guess i'll give you a quick rundown...
       On October I went to Ecuador.... I had went as an emergency trip to see my mother due to the fact that she had been sick with heart issues. I had not been to Ecuador since I was 13 years of age. I'm 39 right now so it's been a long long time. Spend a week and my mom has been taking some meds. to keep her cholesterol down and her blood pressure. I got to see my whole family. I have not seen in years... It was such a great feeling that this year in March I plan to take my younger kids. I think this trip they would appreciate.
         In December of this year I lost my Aunt. She was like my second mother. I was raised by her. It had been such a devastating death to us (not that any death isn't) but we just had no clue it was her time. My aunt was never sick, had not been sick or had complained that she was sick. It was just her time. It was like God decided that she was done and took her batteries out and she just stop. This was such a comfort for us because she never suffered. She died in peace in her home. One moment she was here with us and in hours she left to be with our heavenly father..
         As a result of my aunt's passing my family and I have grown closer. We had not really spoke in years. It's really sad that this type of things is what we have to go through as a family to mature. Next week is my son's birthday. I decided that I will be cutting a cake and invited my family . They all accepted the invitation and will be here for the first time since I purchased my home in 8 years next week..... Wish me luck

Good morning,
   I pray that everyones morning is great. Think about this. You woke up. You are honor with another day. So many of us are not going to be waking up so you should feel honor that the Lord has chosen you today..
  My little grandaughter is growing up. She has started school. Its only headstart but the fact that she has started is such a great thing for us..  I am so proud of my eldest daughter.. She is taking good care of her. I will never say that to her though. It will swell her head.
     Enjoy your day today my blogger family and remember smile..God loves you!!!!

Still living...

Good morning to all. Iy has been so long since I have had a post..  so much has gone by. First let me start by saying God is so good all the time. I am a living witness of that.
  Summer was beautiful. Very hot. We were able to squeeze a family trip to Myrtle beach. My grandchildren went and all my kids. My son graduated this year from high school and just yesterday was his first day of college. Im so proud of him..
We had kept my eldest grandaughter for a month. She lives in Virginia so I don't get to see her often.
    I have not felt quite so good this month. When people say that the closer you try to do right thing and search God the more adversaries come your way.  This is so true. It has felt that no matter what I try to do, there is something pulling me back down. I am a woman of a lot of faith and even though I question things a lot i know that all the good things in my life come from my heavenly father.
I have been feeling lots of pain on my right side so i went to the Dr. and they ran some tests to see what was causing this horrible pain. I prayed so hard and even though I still have a lot of pain on the side , there was nothing on my test results that would indicate anything was wrong. The Dr. was shock because she thought for sure that I had to remove my appendix and even worst my kidneys... but I am a child of the living God Jesus and because I called on his name for healing I know there was nothing to worry about...
   Thank you to all for being there listening to me as I blab but just wanted to share this with someone..
