Javares Washington's Children

I'm sure you guys remember that I just went home for my cousin's funeral. I thought I would post a couple of pictures of his beautiful children.

As some of you know, I'm really not very good at keeping in touch with anyone. Of course, I talk to my dad and aunts regularly. The only cousin I kept in touch with regularly was Javares. My friends and I keep in touch through email. I know it's something I need to work on and I will. For now, I am really putting forth the effort to stay in contact with his children. So, I have to go home in May for his son's kindergarten graduation and his daughter will turn 1 year old in April so I'm going to try to make that as well. If not, I'll definitely send a nice gift.

Anyway, here are the pics. I hope you're all having a fabulous day.

In a strange but good way your kids resemble each other. His little girl reminds me of Danae when she was a baby. I even remember having a dress like that. That would be great if you make it to his graduation.

Motherhood

Yesterday, I had something to do so the kids went to their old sitter's house for a few hours. We got home later than intended so I knew I would be rushing to prepare dinner, get them bathed, and settled for the night. Here's what really happened. As soon as we entered the house, Brayden started running around saying "Mommy, I have to pee". So we rush into the bathroom and as soon as his pants are unbuttoned, he starts peeing on himself. I clean him up and decide they can play in the tub while I start preparing dinner. As soon as we get to the kitchen, Danica throws up all over me, herself, and the floor. So, I take her to our bathroom and bathe her. Before I can get her pj's buttoned up, Brayden starts screaming "I have to pee!" Because he just went all over the bathroom floor, I'm a little perplexed. I run to their bathroom anyway only to find out he didn't have to pee, he had to poop and had already dropped two bombs in the bathtub where his s...

In Memory...

Staff Sergeant Javares Washington was killed in Kuwait. He was my cousin. My cousin died yesterday...in Kuwait...and I'm so very sad. I feel like I can't breathe. My heart is broken. We grew up like siblings. His mom had him at a very young age. She wasn't ready to take care of him. So, he lived with us for years. He was like my brother. And now, I'm in shock. I'm going to miss him so much. The military has only said he was in a government vehicle on patrol and it flipped over. We don't know what caused the flip or anything. I want to go home. He was married and had two children. His son, Jayden, is 6 years old and looks just like him. His daughter, Tristin, is 9 months old. My heart is broken.

Love at First Sight

I am absolutely in love with this little girl. Danica was born with a heart murmur but we found out today it's no longer there. We are so happy with this little perfect being and can't wait to get to know her more.
