Appreciate your love ones

Hey guys the day before yesterday was a very hard day for me. I got my husband's death certificate. My mother in law put it in my diaper bag before she left to Mexico. I was cleaning my baby's diaper bag and I found it. It caught me by surprised and I lost it. I was home alone and I started crying like a baby again. I guess the fact of Saul not being here and realizing I am never going to see him again really devastated me. It's going to be really hard to start a new year without him. God is good. God has helped me a lot. Enjoy your life and love your love ones. Avoid getting mad and try to stay positive. Treasure every beautiful moment. Appreciate your love ones because you never know if it may be the last time you talk to them.

Happy late birthday Gianni boy!

Hey Gianni I hope you had a happy birthday! Well Gianni what can I say, you are a very loving and caring person. It's okay to be sensitive that shows you have a heart. Please stay in sports it will help you understand teamwork better and help you stay healthy but it's okay if you don't want to. It's all up to you. Take advice from people but don't let no one talk you into something you don't want to do. Well Gianni may god guide you in the right path and may god bless you with love, life, and happiness.
                                                                                  
                                                                                                              best wishes,

Happy late birthday Tereo!

Hey Tereo! I hope you had a great birthday. May god bless you and your family with love, life, and happiness. You are my oldest sister (even though I feel like I should've been the oldest :-)! ) who I respect and love very much. You are a funny person who is very open and doesn't care what people think about you. You are always smiling even though you have your bad moods. I appreciate you being there for my daughter and me in this tough time that we are going through. You cry when I cry, you are by my side when I need you, you treat my kid as if she was your own, and you try to help me out the best that you can. I wanted to tell you thank you. Thank you for being a terrific sister and a wonderful aunt. God bless you Tere you deserve it.
                                                                                                     with lots of love,
                                                                                                                          Chavely

You are a very tough little guy.

No Bullying! (chavelys)

Hey yall

Well the topic for this week is about bullies!

Now and days there's a lot of rude people, whatever happened to saying "please" and "thank you". 

Is it too much to ask to hold the door for someone, saying "excuse me", or simply saying "thank you".

You know many of us are going through a very tough time and the last thing we need is people being mean, rude or making fun of us.

My mother gave me this advice and now i pass this on to yall:

Never think you are better than someone, but never think you are less than someone.

We are all equal and you know what we are.

We all sleep, eat, poop, and the sad truth we all die.

We are here for a while, people come and go.

Words can hurt a persons feelings. We are not made of stone.

God gave us feelings, in another words emotions.

Emotions are what drives our heart. Our body reacts upon our emotions. 

We cry when we are sad, we laugh when we are happy and so on.

Be careful of what you say and if you see someone being picked on say something because you can change someones life. I know when you are in school you are afraid to speak out.

Some agree with the majority, but only because the majority agrees on something, it doesnt mean that is right.

Be yourself!!!

Of course people are going to hate or love you but at least for who you are.

If you know someone that is being bullied and if you dont want to say something because you are afraid

of not being cool or fitting in well guess what you are taking that persons life for granted and putting more

wood on the fire for bullies. In other words you are saying ok to bullies and its NOT ok. 

We are nobody to judge only God can see everything only God can judge. 

We are nobody to point the finger. Next time you want to say a mean comment about a person

ask yourself

Do you know what that person has been through? Why they might be in that situation?

Who are you to judge? Who are you and I to judge if we know nothing of them.

Nobody is perfect and its ok to make mistakes.

That's who we are we are sinners, but that doesn't mean that it's ok to keep sinning the same sin.

We need to learn from our mistakes, grow from them and become a better human being.

Well go out there make a good deed, stay positive its good for your soul. Help others and put bullying to an end. Trust me it will not only make you a better person it will bring a little bit of happiness to that persons life and make them feel appreciated. 

Well i leave yall with a verse from the bible, words of wisdom to put yall and I to think

God bless yall and its cool to be good.

Love, Chavely

PSALM 82:3-4

"Defend the cause of the weak and fatherless, maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed. Rescue the weak and needy: Deliver them from the hand of the wicked."

1st Blog!

This is our first time blogging (haha!) Today we went on a date or shall we say "dates" with our little cousins. Sindy, who is 15,  is the sweetest most caring person ever! She may seem quiet but she is a silly girl. She is very responsible, always smiling and she always has a positive attitude!

Andy(left), who is 14, is a sweet well-mannered young man with a sense of humor. He is shy and laid-back but he is not afraid getting out of his comfort zone.
Anthony(right), who is 11, is a very smart, funny crazy little guy. He is low-maintenance, talkative, and loves Shakira:)

Last but not least is J that's right just J (haha) that's his name. So J is 13 and he is the most outgoing of the bunch!! He always has something to say whether you like to hear it or not. He is very street smart, he cracks jokes and very sporty.
You will be reading alot about them and other little cousins we have because we like to take them out when we can especially for their birthdays... well we just started to do this this year. When we were their age we hardly went out to "cool" places.  "our job" as their older cousins is to take them out and have fun!
So today we went out to celebrate Andy's birthday. First we went to Cici's Pizza yum! stuffed our faces and laughed hysterically like we always do! We then went to go see Paranormal Activity 2 oooooOOoooOoo and peed our pants.. jk!but it was a pretty scary movie! After the movie we came back home and chilled. We listened to music, they had a chile/limon/pickle game.. they like to invent and mix foods together. Finally is was time to go. We always have a blast when we hang out with them! There's never a dull moment when all of our families hang out together!
