Best Team Mates! 


























It marked the debut year for our boys in baseball. I pondered whether Gustaf would embrace it as fervently as Gunther. Surprisingly, he did, and both developed a deep affection for the sport. They eagerly anticipated each practice and game, steadily improving their skills and looking sharp in their uniforms. 

Gustaf astounded us with his exceptional speed; during one practice, he effortlessly completed a lap around the entire baseball field, leaving his peers trailing behind. Witnessing his growth filled me with pride and awe. Meanwhile, Gunther showcased remarkable hitting prowess for his tender age of three and a half, displaying a level of skill that amazed me. It was heartwarming to see their bond strengthen as they shared this sport together. Gustaf primarily played as the first baseman, occasionally taking on the role of a middle player, adapting admirably despite being new to the sport at five years old. Unfortunately, our season was cut short due to the onset of COVID-19 in March. It was a somber time, yet we remained thankful for the few games and practices we were able to enjoy. 

Despite the setback, both boys maintain their enthusiasm for baseball, eagerly awaiting the day when they can resume playing without restrictions.

Ending of 2023

  I n 2023, many wonderful things happened, along with some growth and few setbacks. Despite challenges, we grew closer and loved each other more deeply. I began this blog since 2019 with the intention of capturing the happy moments shared by my family - our homeschooling experiences, outings, and everything in between. However, amidst the demand of family life, I struggled to maintain consistency.  H ere are few photos I managed to retrieve from my phone, although I lost many due to a broken device. Nevertheless, 2023 was a significant year for me. I set two major goals: to complete my first half-marathon (13 miles) and full marathon (26.2), and to attend the temple for the 5:30am session on Tuesday at least once a month. Remarkably, I achieved both goals.  J ust to clarify: I've never been much of a runner. My only experience with running has been chasing my kids around the parks. LoL!! (the best kind of running) Venturing into the world of running was entirely new to m...
Since football season started, it has been hard to do any family events with my husband. We seriously miss him around this time of the year. Nevertheless, this very Sunday, the kids were so happy and loved our little family time out in nature! I loved seeing our kids happy and enjoying their time with daddy. I am grateful we had another day to spend it like this as a family and be outdoors on a beautiful sunny Sunday! 

February 2023: Filled with Love!

 There's so much love in our family, and I adore seeing the sweet gestures my children show each other, especially towards our youngest daughters from their brothers. They all enjoy snuggling as they watched a movie, helping each other and or helping clean around the house. (Yes, I said it, " cleaning around the house" haha!!)  This month has been particularly delightful, as I made an extra effort to celebrate Valentine's Day throughout the month, not just on the day itself. I believe we've all done a wonderful job expressing our care for one another, whether through lending a hand around the house, sharing hugs, or simply saying "I love you" countless times throughout the day. It's a win win day for me! :) Anyhow, I managed to capture some moments in photos, which truly reflect how amazing it has been. I ended up with numerous pictures because some moments were just too adorable to pass up capturing.
