It is a sunny fall Sabbath afternoon in Mississippi. Sophia is wearing flip flops and a blue cotton baby doll dress with little pastel flowers as she ran around our trailer with Davinchi, our daschound, and Brownie, our new puppy. She just came in to get Raul, her papa, and Elena, her sister, to go walking with her in the huge field in front of our trailer. Levi just woke up and he is hungry and Lino Fino, our baby blue parakeet is singing with my favorite christian CD.

Happy Sabbath!

I have been very busy...

Who knew my life would twirl into a whirlwind as I sold my house on July 19? That is what happened though. The idea that we actually sold our house in the current economy is a miracle all by itself, and we actually sold it with a good price too. That same day, we purchased 12 acres of land in Toomsuba, MS. This was the first step to our dream of living on a farm.


Three months later, our house is very close to being built and we no longer live in the city.

Until our house is finished, we are renting a trailer in Russell, MS and we also added a new family member. Our first son, Levi Raul Espinosa, was 8 lb. 12 oz. and 21 inches long. He is six weeks old now.

Lots of people have questioned our sanity in selling our house to move to a larger acreage in the country, but for me it is not just about my desire to live on a farm. My husband and I feel that God wants us to raise our children in a relaxed country environment, so that's where we are going.

Hello, I am Sophia. (my first dictated post)

I like dogs and horses and cats and puppies and birdies. I like my baby brother named Levi. I played with Ansley today. She is my new friend.
