Family Day

This is where my hubby Erick proposed to me the second time! The first time was outside the temple garden he was on his knees asking me to marry him...and there were people walking out from the temple so I didn't want people to look at us so I quickly said yes and then later on told him that I'm not sure..:):):):):) He asked me 6 months later to marry him again at this spot and I said yes for real!!


Hopefullly she will be a faithful member of the Church when she's older


She loves running up and down on the stairs with her nappy only

She loves to explore

learning how to blow

Our little family decided on a Sunday afternoon (1 Feb 2009) to go to the park just across the road and just spend some time together just hanging out and watching baby Rosario running around and just having fun. Then we went for a ride to the temple at Carlingford ...and talking about the temple Erick and I have not been to the temple for a long long time and we are trying to make the effort to go there but there's always something coming up...I know excuses...excuses...excuses! Anyways I have been reading the Doctrine and Covenant this week and I know that I need to repent and to go to the temple often and also to remember the Lord Jesus Christ and the sacrifice he has done for me so that I have the opportunity to find my way back to him. Despise my weaknesses I know that he loves me and my family.

Dearest Daughter

Today you turned 14 mos and let me tell you how funny and smart you are...At 14mos you already understand a lot of words for your age. When mommy said "Oracion" (prayer in spanish) you would folds your arms ready for prayer! You would repeat simple words such as "Cabeza" (head in spanish) and at one time you would point to my nose and said "wat dat!". I would try to make you ask me the question again but you wouldn't, you only said what you want to said when you want to say it at your own time!

Well I forgot to mention that we have recently moved to a new house and area which is called Blacktown. We also now attending a new ward and I would take you with me to Sunday School and to Relief Society class but you would make lot of noises because you are always talking in your own language and people would be looking at us so I finally decided to take you to nursery class. You absolutely loves nursery class but you also would cry if I'm not there with you. So funny to watch you especially when this little boy keep trying to come and play with you but you tell him "AWAY!"

Anyways today on your B'day I took you to take a photo with Santa Clause and you were crying and poor Santa he looks so exhausted..lol. We bought the photos because your aunt Lili and I thought it was pretty funny.

I am so grateful for you especially now when I am still mourning for your little baby brother Angel you have helped me to ease the pain just with your beautiful smile and presence. I love you so much and you are mommy sunshine in this dark moment.

Baby Angel

There's no words that can explain the pain of losing a baby. Two weeks ago Erick & I found out the good news that I was about 5 wks pregnant. Today I have miscarriage and we just came back from the hospital 2 hours ago. Erick and I both cried as the doctor told us that the baby is gone. We named him Baby Angel and we are going to dedicate our life to serve God from now on and hopefully one day we will see our little baby again. Erick has given me a blessing earlier that mention that the baby boy I'm carrying is very sick but everything will be okay according to our faith. I was hoping that somehow a miracle could happen and baby Angel would be okay but I guess Heavenly Father sees that he only needs to come and receive a body and return back to him. The miracle this baby has brought is for Erick and I to remember the Lord and to have faith in him. So now we decided that I don't need to go back to work anymore but to stay home and be a full time mom and also to have more babies!!! We also decided that from now on we will always going to remember this date, 13 December 2008 of our little Angel who is now watching over us. I hope you know that we love you so much and we are looking forward to see you one day.
