A few out of the loop....

Well, I have got a comment or two about the "business opportunity". For those who do not know, Tasha and I have been very blessed in our move up here. When we were in Texas Tash worked for a company called americredit. They are a leanholder for autos. (among other things) She worked with the state of Florida. When a car is repoed The DMV has to flip the title back to the lean holder so the car can be put up for auction. It usually take about 1 to 1 1/2 months for this to happen. So the lean holders use middle men to "flip" the title fast.

Well in her dealing with Florida she would work with one of these so called "middle men", his name is Greg. He is a great man and run a Christian based company. It so turns out that Greg was looking to expand his business a little further north. He has presented us with the opportunity of franchise owners. We will run his offices for New York and New Jersey. This is truly a blessing to us. We should have everything running early next week according to our talk with Greg today. This will provide us with financial freedom. We will be making nearly triple a year what we made combined in Texas. We have prayed and prayed. At one point it looked as if we were not going to be able to do this. That night I went to God in the biggest prayer session of my life. I asked him to help us and guide us. The next day, literally, he opened up the door and we were able to get things going. I do believe that this is truly the path that God has set before us. Family, I know that some of you may have questions about it. Please contact me over this and I will go a little more into detail. I love you all and thank you for the support.

Not Much New...

Well there isn't much new to report. We are still here in NJ. We are still trying to get our business up and running. Hopefully it won't be too long. Things are going smooth. Tash's belly is gettin' big with the baby. We can really feel him kickin'. Like I said, not much. Till next time.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Well it is now officially the new year. I've seen 22 other new years and they all go by about the same. This one will be different though. This year marks a great turning point in my life. A year I go from being a man of the house to a father.

I have had some great role models to look at though. First, my father. Dad if you are reading this I just want to thank you for all the great times that we shared. I know that we had some rough spot and we didn't always see eye to eye, but I don't think that I would be half the person that I am today if it wasn't for you. I love you and Hope that I'm at least half the father that you were. I also want to thank Pepa (Grandpa for those of you who don't know him). You have truly been a inspiration to me. I see the finished product of a great father through my mom. You have looked after both of your children and been there for them when they need you. I don't think of you as just a Grandfather but also another father figure in my life. Thank you and I love you.

I know that I'm going to enjoy being a father. I can't wait till I can hold him in my hands. What a great day that will be. I keep looking at my wife and I see that she is ready too. With this New Year comes a New Life. A life of change and true adulthood, and life where I can finally understand the love A FATHER shares for his family.
