YouTube is forcing me to write about myself instead of rely on the kids' cuteness....

Youtube is failing me. Thus there is a shortage of cute little kid videos lately. My apologies.

The kids drain me. But I love them. They are adorable. They trust me and love me. They come to me when they need me and want to spend time with me. Even the youngest has been sweet on me lately. Helping raise children is a lot more difficult than I thought it would be but I'm learning a ton.

I tell the kids stories a lot and they have started telling stories of their own. It's so cute because they get really animated like I do and then just talk and talk and talk. Then randomly say THE END! The stories are ALWAYS about princesses.

I spend a lot of time talking to my "family" here. My bosses if you will, my best friends. They are a blast and help me work through life stuff. They always encourage me to address situations according to my heart. I'm growing a lot I think. I also learn a lot from our church, which I LOVE.

We had a church Christmas party this saturday and I had an amazing time. I got to try Coquito which is a typical puertorrican christmas drink and got to spend time with some of my favorite folks.

Below is a picture of me with the rule-following twin. Notice how she's terribly cute but is holding a knife towards me. This is the paradox that is my life.
