the men in my life.

i have these amazing guys in my life.

well, the most important man in my life is my husband, of course. he's just a pretty swell guy. :) i love him to pieces. he spoils me & is stern with me. we have great fun together. most importantly, he is a man of God. he's soo soo talented & charming. we'll have a little spat & 5 minutes later, we're lovey dovey. i hope it stays like that forever. he has the cutest dimples & smile that would make anyone melt. but i hope no one else melts. he's mine. :) he's a good listener. he encourages me when i get down. he's everything i've dreamt to have in a husband. i know he is truly God-sent. God made him just for me.



my nephews. wow. have you seen any boys cuter? i have not, i daresay. Preston is my little man, my lovebug, my toot-toot. i love him as if he were my own. i'm so scared to have a little boy of my own because i love preston so much. after my mom died & before i got married, i spent so much time with him. he became my own. now, i have a new nephew. his name is maddox lee & he is so adorable. i am going to louisiana next week to meet him. i'll tell you what, i am sooo ready to see him & hold him & kiss him!! i already love him like crazy. before he was born, i told my brother & sis that i didn't know how i would feel having a new nephew. just because i love preston & i didn't know if i could love someone else. but that was just craziness. i love maddox, too!! haha!! i'm gonna go crazy whenever i see them. they are my little men.


on to the next guy, my dad. i have to say i have been blessed with a pretty cool dad. being the only girl, i was/am spoiled rotten. i am daddy's little princess or 'princessa' or 'princesita'. i think my brothers hated me growing up because we would pretend they were my slaves/soldiers & i would say 'hey, i'm thirsty. be a good slave/soldier & get me something to drink'. they would look at me like i was an idiot. but daddy would always say 'do as she said'. haha!! those were the good ole days. not only have i been blessed with a godly husband but also with a godly father. there were times that i would go against what dad said, but in the end dad was always right. he has pretty great discernment. i love my daddy. we've hit rough patches throughout our lives. but we get through them. he's a pretty cool guy. he's given us a better life because he didn't have such a good life growing up. he works/worked so hard to provide. i'm so thankful of everything he has done for me.

my older brothers. i have some crazy cool brothers. i have 4 brothers; 2 older & 2 younger. alex, the oldest. we never really got along growing up, except when he was not living at home. when my mom passed away, he became one of my best friends. he's such a great older brother. we still butt heads from time to time. he's smart & funny. he's serious. he's el chanchito. haha!! alex made me rich growing up. i always did his homework which in turn made me advanced in classes. one of my greatest memories of him is always sitting in my mom's lap. she loved it. you could barely see her underneath him. haha!! lester, the second oldest. he's always been so nice to me. alex was much more stern with me, lester was opposite. lester is the one that would jump in the bed with you when you were sleeping & fart or burp in your face. gross!! i know!! when i was a freshmen in highschool, lester was a junior & alex a senior. i would walk through the halls & see alex with his friends & i would be like 'hey alex' & he would just nod. when i would see lester through the halls, he would come up to me & give me a knuckle sandwich. haha!!

my younger brothers. axel, the second youngest. everybody knows axel. i would go through mcdonald's drive thru & the girls there would be like 'you axel's sista?'. yes, i'm axel's sista. the girls would say 'ooo, he so fine.' haha!! he is a little cutie. :) with some crazy afro hair. wow. we always fought growing up. but now i feel like he's one of my babies. i love him to death. he's really cool & very talented as well. he's very random & spontaneous. sometimes i wish i could be a little more like him. he has such a good heart. i miss him. aaron, he's the baby of the family. he's such a good bubba hubba. aaron was the only one born in the US. we did not have a lot growing up. aaron started eating mcdonald's when he could start eating solids. haha!! we were so tired of rice & beans, we would use aaron as bait to get our parents to take us to mcdonald's. we would say 'aaron, you'll be our best bubba hubba forever & ever if you get mom & dad to take us to mcdonald's.' haha!! we were so bad. aaron had a little speech problem. so it was so cute when he would talk so of course mom & dad would give in. haha!! i think mom & dad didn't see a lot of aaron & axel's report cards growing up because i had mastered my parents' signatures & would sign them so they would not get in trouble. those were the days.

i have been quite blessed with some pretty awesome & cool men in my life. i wouldn't trade them for anything in this world. i love them so so very much.
