My #TLCVoxBox compliments of @influenster

Any time I get free stuff it's awesome but This box was beyond awesome!
I got a shell fuel reward card
Neosporin spray, Puff tissues, The cutest Avon a new compact, A vintage style ivory soap bar
And coupon for breyers Gelato.

Having two little bugs running around, neosporin is a daily necessity.

All are amazing products I love and used on a regular basis.
The only one I had reserved about was the shell card, cause shell gas is always the highest, I never pump there but with $.25 off a gallon, the card actually put their price at the lowest which a major win!

Did you get a VoxBox? what did you get?

Summer chronicles: My best friend wedding

I really like that Pic, but I didn't know how my groomsmen would feel being plastered in my blog so he's MR sunshine LOL
we look gorge! if I do say so myself!


I love the little bug photo bombing LOL she wasn't suppose to be in it LOL
 My best friend's wedding happened to be my all time favorites movie! I can watch it back to back for hours and still get teary eyes as Julia Roberts proclaim her weirdo love for her bestfriend, then I'll laugh at myself for being weird too. LOL

Anywoo!

Summer wouldn't be summer without weddings.
My girlfriend got married and I went on a road trip! I drove to another state, and didn't get lost!
Somebody say PRAISE THE LORD!
if you only knew how much of a miracle that was. Nevertheless we had so much fun! The wedding venue looked like a screen saver! So pretty it didn't look real, looked more like a back drop.
My girl did absolutely right by her bridesmaid and pick the most gorgeous dress summer wedding dress ever!
I'm so wearing that dress again!

What have y'all been up to? How's your summer going?

I Got Fired

Hola Chicas!

How have you guys been doing? I've been kinda sporadic in and out and I have a good reason sorta...

I Got Fired!

Yep! yep! I got the eery HR call a month ago, so I've been at home trying to figure out my next move. You'd think I'd have more time to blog right?

Wrong! Nevertheless I haven't been idle, I've been working diligently on my "work at home mom" projects you know we gotta eat! and more importantly I gotta have shoes!

I'm so grateful for how good God has been to me and my girls, last time something like that happen to me, I was a wrecked, although I had a nice severance package and a husband to pick up the slack I was so bummed and out I couldn't sleep, I was cripple with fear... I was in a bad shape.

This time around, my severance package is barely, and I have no husband back up, I should be freaking out, but I sleep like a baby! I have such a peace in knowing that my God is Jehovah Jireh, and He will provide. Such a proof that our circumstances have nothing to do with how we react.

It's all in the focus!

I'm in the same storm, even worse storm but I have His peace and comfort and knowing He got it all under control.

I praise God for His peace that passes all understanding and for staying true to His promises that he will never leave me nor forsake me, He is my source and my provider.

Whom shall I fear? :)

I have so much stuff to share with you guys, my new project I'm working on, the every day awesome moves of God.

Stay tune!

Happy Father's day to my daddy in heaven!

I had a dream about my dad last night... it's been a while since I had one. Most of the time, my dreams about dad are simply replayed memory, but this one was different, he aged, he had gray hair... don't remember much but it was nice.

14 years ago, my daddy went on to be with the Lord. I remember working all day saving up all my money trying to get ready for Christmas, I had so many plan, I was gonna surprise my parents with presents that I BOUGHT with my own money (that was my first job). I came home from an overtime shift to receive a call that my dad was gone.

I might as well have been cut me in half and take my organ out and chop them off, I’m sure this news hurts more.

I cried until I didn't have anymore tears, I never thought this pain would ever go away but it did.

PRAISE GOD!

its silly because I sing: “what a glorious day it would be when we get to heaven” but my dad trip to heaven just makes me sad(even bitter), but I’m happy he’s in heaven.

14 years later I still don’t like it but I feel better about it now.

I don’t know if heaven’s resident get sneak peek but I really hope they do… so dad could see that all the good stuff he speak into existence for me really did came true... for the most part, I did some messing up but I know he'd be proud!

I did finish school, I have a successful career, I have 2 beautiful baby girls, big bug and little bug. Big bug looks just like you, she even got the nose LOL, she got your smile, pick at food and shrug her shoulders just like you. little bug is picky clean just like you, and like to straighten up and closing doors behind her. Mom live with me now she watch the girls, all the weird stuff mom use to be annoyed with when you do them... now my girls do a lot of the same stuff and that  makes us laugh because they reminds us that you are still here with us.

Just in case you get to peek…

I’m sorry I cried today, I so wish you were still alive, I wish you had gotten to meet the girls, I will I could still talk to you!

I miss you so much! Happy father's day to you and my heavenly father who will always be with me. Thank you daddy God for giving me my daddy.

“What a wonderful day it would be when we all get to heaven” see you there daddy

Growing JOY: Mom Edition

 
Being a mom is a calling, Taking care of little and not so little ones is a mission and our home is the mission field!
 
So rest assure God has equipped you with the ability to do you job. REST!!
 
No need to second guessing everything you do, like I do. My oldest bug got in trouble at school, nothing major she is a professional chatter. She got in trouble for talking too much, that's the second time I got a note from her teacher about her not paying attention. I don't know why but I took it pretty hard, it felt like I failed or something. it's completely stupid, and doesn't make any sense, the fact that my kid like to talk doesn't necessarily say anything about my parenting job but my emotion went right there!
 
I felt like I'm doing the terrible job, and my kids will never learn in school they will end up being terrible people, bad citizens and the list goes on.
 

What a lie?

The devil is a liar, counter his lies with God's truth

I know that God's word promise that my children are taught of the Lord, and when I teach them in the way they should go, they will not depart from it. I'm doing what God called me to do and I know He's my partner in this. I'm not alone!
She's in kindergarten, little girls chat! simple as that and this is nothing earth chattering. 
 

Take Control of your Joy and Rest

Take a chill pill!
Little things like that are joy suckers! need a recipe to ruin your day? there you have it... but in retrospect, if you learn to remove you focus of the junk and know that these things will happen, kids act up, they're going to make their own choices. All we need to do is to commit these children in the hand of God, (they're His in the first place) and trust that He will grow the seeds we've planted.
 
How do you go about daily mom stuff that drain you?
