Inspiration for life

I came upon this video a couple of weeks ago, and for some reason it kept breaking up and I could not see it completely; but the other day I gave it a try once again. It is such a beautiful and inspiring video that sort of gave me a little chill by acknowledging its entire truth.

I wanted to share it specially today, because yesterday was my little guy's third birthday and I realized how fast time goes by, yet, we do not realize it most of the time because of how busy we are, or because we are focused on other things. I am learning to set priorities and stay true to them. I want to enjoy the very simple little pleasures of life. I want to enjoy my kids, husband and family as much as possible. I want to be happy and spiritually complete.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did...

Three

Our first baby

Our first son

is 3 today....

We thank God for the amazing opportunity He gave us to be parents for the first time with Anthony as a gift. He has been an amazing little guy, and we are so thankful, blessed and privileged to have him in our lives.

*  HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANTHONY ! *

We love you more than you will ever imagine!

Life is like...

Water fun

On Sunday while I was cleaning out our back porch and doing some flowers planting, the boys decided they wanted to help out mommy water the plants. They did help out water the plants and the grass mostly, until they figure out that it was a lot more fun to play with the water :)

This is a little shot of both of them while playing with the water hose. Just a few seconds of minutes and minutes of water fun! 

Painting day

By being at home with the boys full time, it is a little bit difficult to find what to do to keep them entertained, specially because they both are at a different age. We play, read, color, paint, watch movies etc etc. I do try to keep them away from the T.V as much as possible, because I believe kids have a huge potential in their little superhuman genius brains that if they watch too much T.V most of that potential will not be developed like it should, yet it is difficult. 

Lately, I've been doing my best to do a lot more extra activities where we can bond, and they can also learn or just simply enjoy the moment, do something different, new and exciting. Today was painting day, it happened at different times because while David napped, Anthony painted, and vice versa.

Notice how I had to cover the painting area a lot more than what I did with Anthony?

Yes, David was a lot messier...

Ok, so in this one, I was actually was going to take a picture of him painting, when suddenly and quickly, very quickly!, he decided to taste the paint. He did not like it! 

 

 I really like all the pictures even though some are blurry. I had taken most of them with the phone because first, I could not find the camera, second, it wasn't fully charged. Lesson learned!  The good thing is that we are going to have a lot more days like this :)

Have a lovely weekend!

P.S. The paint we use is Crayola Washable Kids Paint 10 ct.
