Good times with our boys ❤️👦🏻👦🏻this weekend

3/10 Edited to

... Read moreSpending quality time with family, especially with children, is one of the most rewarding experiences. Weekends provide a perfect opportunity to step away from the busy routines of work and daily chores to connect deeply with our kids. Whether it's playing games, exploring the outdoors, or simply relaxing together, these moments nurture strong bonds and emotional well-being. From personal experience, dedicating uninterrupted time to our boys has fostered their confidence and happiness. Activities like building forts, cooking together, or going on nature walks not only entertain but also teach teamwork, creativity, and the importance of presence. These simple, joyful activities often become cherished memories that children carry throughout life. In today’s fast-paced world, parents may sometimes feel guilty for not spending enough time with their children. However, even short, meaningful interactions during the weekend can significantly enhance family relationships. Planning ahead for weekend activities allows families to create traditions and shared experiences that roots children in a safe and loving environment. Overall, making an effort to enjoy good times with your boys over the weekend can positively impact their development and your family's happiness. Prioritizing family moments, just like Veronica and Oscar Ortiz, encourages a nurturing home where everyone feels valued and loved.

God is good
We read so much that God is good yet in our day to day lives we fail to live that out. I’ve always wondered why that is. We can sit here and recognize that God is good. And we can all say that God is good. But when stuff hits the fan, our lives say the opposite. I think we struggle to live out

I never really had good friendships…
Over my 26 years of life I have come to the realization that, I never really had good friendships. The reason for that is probably because God was never in the center of these relationships. When I was very young, around 3 years old, I made my very first friend… and that was an absolute mess.
