Really cute kids. How are things going at your place, by the way? I hope things are looking up for you.

Yeah everything going good so far, still i have to put a leash on my older children the wayward ones that is, and if you look for my baby girl shakeitha's picture that is the one that was being sexually harassed on the bus.

Lovely pics, and a lovely family :D

What a beautiful family! And you definitely don't look your age! ^_^

...I was in gymnastics when I was in elementary, and I never could do the splits. They are so lucky!

New York is so beautiful at night. I hope I can go there someday.

Why thank you sweety i appreciate the compliment, and yes my girls are talented but that's because their father teaches them karate, the basics anyway. And if you ever do come to New York look me up and i'll take you to see all sites you want.^^

[xiayou.livejournal.com]

That's cool that their father teaches them karate. No wonder they can all do the splits!

Yay!! :D

[orvida.livejournal.com]

Why thank you again. Yes it's amazing how they adapted to it especially the younger ones. Heck i never even learned to do the split at any age myself. I was very athletic in my younger days what happened? (To me>.<)

[xiayou.livejournal.com]

No problem! :D

I was athletic in high school, but studying in college takes up so much of my time that I only play ultimate frisbee on Fridays. I'm going to start going to yoga and shotokai-karate next week since they are offered at the school for free. ^_^

[orvida.livejournal.com]

No i didn't forget you sweety just running around here like a chicken with no head.

Yes it's strange really to be on sports teams (soccer/soft ball) and not really do anything athletic after, as i said my hubby is teaching the young ones basics of karate and i'm just a spectator.My get up and go got up and went ages ago. Don't get me wrong i can through a full kick if i had to but there will be hell to pay later on for me. I used to do yoga when i was about 6-9 and than i stopped. But with the children i want them to learn everything that they can to be able to defend themselves if need be.

He also teaches the sword technique but only if he feels the person is capable of handling it. I took some pictures of his collection and once i get them developed i'll post a picture of the set.o.o

What a good-looking family you have! It's fun to see people's pix - thanks!

[orvida.livejournal.com]

Why thank you i do so appreciate the compliments on my family it means alot to me. Since i read darn near everyone's stories i felt i should at least post pictures of my family so that the writers will have an idea about who i am even if yall don't know me personally.you get to see the lady behind the comments. Does that make sense to you?^^

[chomiji]

I think I feel the same way! (I had some family & best friends holiday photos here on my LJ ... "the Young Lady" is my daughter.)

[kispexi2.livejournal.com]

Great pics! So much life and vigour. Masses of positive energy!

[orvida.livejournal.com]

Yes thank you, amazing what a few months can do to you. At that time i hadn't been diagnosed with arthiritis of my knees but i was showing symptoms of it. My thyriod flared up a few weeks later so now i'm on radiation treatments to remedy that problem you can't see it but my goiter was very enlarged at that time.

Those were happier times in my family life.

I really hope your treatments work. Health care in the US isn't cheap, is it?
