My Babies aren't Babies anymore

Where does the time go?

Tatiana is going up so fast, I can't believe she is already 14 and entering into high school in the fall. I thought I would be excited about my children "growing and going", but now that I have one in college and one working her way toward college I am feeling that; "empty nest" syndrome. I have forgotten about the plans that I made for myself once my children are grown and out of the house. It's funny, when they were young I couldn't wait until they grew up; and now that they are grown up I miss them being young. Now, I really understand what it means..."to enjoy them while they're young."

My silly girl.

I was going through pictures that I had tucked away, and it's amazing to see the changes in my children over the years. I am blessed, God has been good to me and my children and I pray that He continues to bless us.
Deionte has met himself a very nice young lady

named Natali. She attends and runs track for Sac State University.

So far, Mommy approves...she is a very sweet young lady and she has

a lot of good qualities about her that I like...:o)

Deionte continues to do well in the classroom as well as on the field. God is blessing him, continue to pray for him.

Thanksgiving in Vegas with the Fam!

It was a blessing to beable to spend Thanksgiving with the Jackson Family in Las Vegas. Lil'Frankie got to snap his first wishbone, and then kick back for a nap on his Great-Uncle Charlie's lap.

I finally got to meet Ms. AnneMarie. Congratulations goes to her and Frankie for the little one that's on the way in the Summer 2010. I am banking on a little girl...:o)

I got to visit with Mamie and her fiance Robert. Blessings to them both as they prepare for their upcoming wedding in October 2010.

And a Birthday celebration with Frankie IV who will be turning 1 years old this month.

We all enjoyed one another, and I especially enjoyed watching football with my Uncle Frank. Wish I could be in DC on Jan. 7th to watch the Uni. of Alabama beat the Texas Longhorns with ya Uncle Frank...:o)
I am looking forward to the up coming events in 2010...WoW!!! The Jackson's are going to have a busy New Year.....New baby in the Summer, a wedding in October...Aunt Faye you are going to have to come to Monterey to relax and recover.

Family and Friends

Thank you...to my family and friends for supporting Simba in this 2009 Football Season. It was a hard season, but God pulled Simba through...God has truly blessed my Baby Boy. We had a ACL scare and then the shoulder surgery due to a dislocation...but through it all God was and will always be in Control.
