ItsThrow Back Thursday!

12 years and counting we have been blessed with our little Sophie! All hearts have been filled with joy. Not happiness, joy! And till this day we are joyful that God sent her to us. A little baby. A baby that now has grown into a lovely young lady. With tears in my eyes, I look proudly at my growing family. It’s hard to believe how time has marched on. It’s a shock when we realize time does march on without allow you to give it approval to march on,

What strikes me funny, is how It always seems that when you are in a moment of time, you don’t think of time as slipping by. But it does! When it does, there is no reeling it back.

We are 12 years older and 12 years wiser. May our Almighty Creator allow us another 12 years with this little beautiful baby who now is our little Sophie.

Some Of My Favorite Gifts #ComfortZone

I love my family because they each get me, they know I am not fancy or interested in the latest, greatest. My daughter know that I love to get comfortable as soon as I get home from work, a quick shower, fresh PJs and so I just have to say I love my new Victoria Secret Pom-Pom Slippers and the divine Heavenly Fragrance Lotion and I am set for a relaxing evening. Taking some time to just be. My sister knows I love a good Cosmo and she has the best sense of humor so I really got a kick out of the Clearly Fun Natural Glycerin Soap “Trust Me, You Can Dance”….Vodka. Ha!!!
