Today

I have so much I’ve been wanting to write about….but where does the time go? So much has gone on since my last post.

 About a month ago, my little Benji was admitted into the hospital due to an asthma attack. My poor little baby was in there for 4 days, felt like an eternity. And then a month prior to that, he was rushed to the ER because he had had a seizure. He is alright now. You wouldn’t be able to tell, he has so much energy. He is definately gonna be the one that throws us for a loop as he gets older. You know what they say, the ones that were born itty-bitty will grow up to be strong and tall. That definately applies to my brother, George. He was 2 lbs when he was born, you could put him in a shoe box, thats how little he was. You look at him now….he’s one healthy strong soldier…really a soldier stationed in New York at the present time. His height surpasses mine, he’s really tall. So I see my little Benji growning up to be tall and strong as he gets older. No worries with him, the Lord has him in his hands.

 Going back to the week prior to Benji being admitted into the hospital, my neice Davina was also admitted into the same hospital due to her appendix rupturing. Poor little Davina, she was in there for a whole week. She was a very sick little girl. It was such a trying time for all of the family. She wound up having surgery, but thank God she is ok today.

We also had Solomon’s party in Corpus Christi, but I want to blog about that another time with pics included.  I must add it was fun catching up with family and friends again. We are use to everybody coming to our house, so it was nice to head back to good’ole Corpitos.

 I also discovered that a day after Solomon’s party my dear friend, who was actually at the party, well sadly her mother passed away. I hurt so bad for her. I don’t even know how to comprehend this. My heart hurts so much for her and her family. She is in my thoughts and prayers. My dear friend is also expecting her second baby, which makes it double the pain. I pray peace and comfort over their family. This just makes me stop from all the rush of life and realize that we have to cherish the moments we have with our loved ones. Like a strike of lightening, that loved one can be gone. You can be talking to them today, and tomorrow they’re gone…..unthinkable! I cannot imagine. “I know that the days to come will be difficult sweetie, but I am here for you if you need me.”

Another thing that we are now having to look into is finding another home….great! Well I guess its kinda exciting. The house we currently live in is having some issues plus our lease is going to be up, so we figured this would be the time. Another good thing is that its summer, so it doesn’t affect Solomons school. So we are waiting for a phone call, which of course is dragging! We do plan to buy a home within the next year. Still trying to find the perfect location. San Antonio has so many beautiful subdivisions…just when you think you’ve seen it all, you come across another neighborhood you had no idea was there! And then Isaac’s business is continuing to do great. He and his business partner are looking into finding an office space sometime at the end of this year, very exciting for Echo Design Solutions. I am so proud of him. He has five contractors working under him and one in training. Pretty good for a year of self-employment! You go boy!! hehe.

 Well I guess thats all for now….at least for the time being. I hope to update this blog more frequently.

Nighty-night
