Morning Dew Kisses

I think my red rose love the new location where I replanted her. She seems to bloom more this year  than she ever did in the past years.  We have been getting rain and heavy fogs  for the past couple of weeks.
Have a beautiful  day everyone.

Heart Rocks!

As we were waiting outside for the   group of men to pour the cement at our porch, Ms. Burrito gather  some rocks from the  material that the construction team have left in the yard.  She formed  a heart out of it.
She was gonna fill it up but then the men started working so we have to move away.  Your heart rocks Ms. Burrito!  Connect with us with your favorite color every Friday!

Miracle

Our weekend was a busy one.  We visited my brother-in-law who has been battling with cancer since last Thanksgiving.  We were so surprised to learn that his doctor  has decided  to stop  his chemo treatment.  According to my BIL, the doctor told him that if the chemo will be continued, it will just make it worse and shorten his life to three months.  The doctor then told him to enjoy his remaining time of 6-9 months.

It's a devastating  revelation for all of us because  the doctor told us before that everything was  great after his surgery, that the remaining  cancer spots in his liver  can just be treated with chemo.  The doctor just  pulled out  that remaining HOPE we all have for my BIL.  My SIL made some calls and she was able to  contact American Cancer Society.  They have an appointment sometime this month and we are all hoping and praying that  there still hope and chance for my BIL to recover this battle.
 The kids were so sad upon learning the news, they  both love Uncle Dave and the thought that  his days are  getting short makes them so sad. 
 My husband's  theory about it is that, maybe my BIL has maxed out his insurance already that they would no longer pay for any treatment.  We are praying for a MIRACLE to happen, we all hope that my BIL would still be given a chance  and get cured  by this new doctor that will examine him.
Please include my BIL in your prayer, thank you so much!

Role Modeling

When I was growing up, we live in a farm where there's a lot of guava trees. Every time we goes home from school, I would always climb in my favorite guava tree and picked some ripe ones.
I feel bad that my kids  don't enjoy that kind of things very often.  We let them experience  it though every chance they get.

"Role Modeling is the most basic responsibility of parents.  They are handing life's scripts to their children, scripts that in all likelihood will be acted out for much of the rest of the children's lives."
Stephen R. Covey.


Panning for Gold

The weather was very good today so we went to the pumpkin farm.  The kids  had so much  fun and one of the  activities that my daughter did is panning for gold where you can get gemstones, minerals, and rare specimen from around the world.  Too bad, she did not find any    pearls at all hehehe.   It cost $5  to do it and you get different kinds of gems, not much though.
