Well...there is a lot going on right now!!! I have been pretty busy doing so many stuff!!! and at the same time having fun!!! woo-hoo I win!!!

Great news!!! I have a new cousin!!! He is just SO CUTE!!! My aunt and uncle just adopted him; his name is Joseph Caleb Lustenberger, he was born 4 days ago...we are just so happy to have him in our family, and the great blessing he is to all of us, he is just an angel from God!!! the weird thing is that my aunt and uncle weren't looking to adopt, they opportunity just came, and the accepted, they love him so much! we love him too! And everyone says he looks just like my dad, lol, and that he should be my dad's son!!!

Summer is coming up!!! and lots of activities!!! While I was in church on sunday a pastor from Brownsville, Tx came to visit. He is like those kind of persons that really encourages you!!! He told me there is a group from the US coming this summer, and suddenly he says: Miriam, I need you!!! and I am like: yeah, what for? He is like: I want you to be in charge of this group, I want you to share with them what you know and train them, I know you have a lot to share; imagine my face: WHAT??? I just think is God's grace upon all His sons and daughters!!! upon you!!!

This group coming are doing mission's work, and it's just so amazing and I have been thinking of that, I even shared about it to my church: The most memorable moments are when people say that we were "different", and we hear about it, and that is so encouraging to our lives! and I know what that means..you know it, too....that means we are having an impact on other's lives, and that is amazing; being a living testimony wherever we go, that others see God's love, peace and light in our lives, and sharing that with others....facing problems but trusting the Lord always and turning our hearts towards Him, no matter the country you are, no matter what!!!!

Looking forward for COMMIT, first time in Mexico, July 2006!!!

God bless!!!

Hola everyone!!! I am sooooooo sleepy!!!! last night I got home like 2 am!!! we went to give "serenatas" to all my aunts, my mom and grandma, and then got up at 6:30 am!! gosh! We went this morning to have breakfast with all of them, and had sooo much fun!!! you know, mexicans are always having parties, lol!!!!

There has been a lot going on since I got home....but it's always good to take a moment to think of what you are doing...last week while I was in brownsville visiting one of my cousins, we were talking about how people waste their time doing nothing! or just doing everything but without a purpose!!! So, everyday ask your self if what you are doing is really worthy and give always your best!!! He has a purpose for everything! Look for it!!!

Just something I wanted to share with y'all!

Hey I miss you!!!!!

Oh, that's me & my mom!!!
