my family from Puerto Rico's visit





Tomorrow the last of the family will be leaving to go back to Puerto Rico, it has been a nice to see my cousins and uncles and aunts again after so many years and yet it gives me a sad feeling because they are all in need of the grace of God in their lives. 
I pray the Lord uses this visit to shed light and the He uses our family to be a light unto them. Here are some pictures of them.
 
Blessings

my wonderful hubby

I have decided that after such a long time of not posting anything (because of lack of time), that I will now take the time to post something special in recognition of my dearest friend, my life long companion, my knight in shinning armor, my wonderful leader-- my husband. What makes him so wonderful? His sacrificial love for me and our children. 
He is, at this moment, doing something that he would rather not be doing-- remodeling our bathroom and kitchen. Our house is old and not everything measures up nicely when one is trying to remodel things, so it takes lots of patients and a great desire to please me to make him take up this endeavor. Why is this so amazing? Because everything he does is for us-- his family. 
My dear husband works everyday sacrificially to provide for his family, and everyday- twice a day- he takes the time- even when he is exhaustedly tired from work- to instruct us in the Word of God; so we are not only fed and cared for physically, but spiritually as well.  He is an example of true manhood, godliness, generosity, and love for his family. 
I love him!

Here he is trying to level the floor (tedious business when the floor has a terrible slant!)
He wouldn't smile for the camera!
Measuring, thinking, planning...
Plumbing... how he hates it!
But he does it anyways-- for me!
