My family nourishes my soul..
Family life is full of major and minor crises -- the ups and downs of health, success and failure in career, marriage -- and all kinds of characters. It is tied to places and events and histories. With all of these felt details, life etches itself into memory and personality. It's difficult to imagine anything more nourishing to the soul.
~Thomas Moore

My mom is a neverending song in my heart of comfort, happiness, and being. I may sometimes forget the words but I always remember the tune. ~Graycie Harmon
A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts.
~Washington Irving
Who ran to help me when I fell,
And would some pretty story tell,
Or kiss the place to make it well?

Those pictures are so precious Reina!!! Your children are absolutely beautiful...look at that heart shaped cactus. Desert's are beautiful in their own odd way, but it's just a testament to God's ability to put beauty into everything he made, no matter what it is.
Emma looks like a little archeologist and the heart-shaped cactus is neat!
