Mi Querida Familia: Do you know what I can do?

November 10, 2009

Do you know what I can do?

It's official.

I'm a mom.

Did you know the true sign of mommyhood is not labor and delivery?
Just ask this lady. Or this lady.

Nope. The true sign of mommyhood? Well...

I can carry the diaper bag, a hand bag, my purse, the laundry, a water bottle, and the baby up the stairs.

Can you?

I'm Renee. I am first, and only, a child of the King of Kings. I am a wife to my husband who grew up in Costa Rica, and Mama to my two boys, one still on the way. Home is in Colorado Springs, but it's also been in Costa Rica and San Diego. We raise a bilingual household. I am a small business owner. I use cloth diapers, I make my own baby food and I am proud to be a Babywise mom. I am opinionated, outgoing and bold, but Jesus daily brings forth loveliness. I am a Southern California girl who says ya'll and I like to start my sentences with conjunctions. I worship loudly with my eyes closed, my hands up, and (usually) tears streaming down. Writing and speaking are great loves of mine. Skin care is my trade. Jesus and his people are my reason for being and my boys - the most important people in my life - get my kisses daily. I believe in living BIG. In giving EXTRAVAGANTLY. And in loving DEEPLY.
