The Martinez Family

I have known Wendy for just around ten years.

When we met, her youngest was barely crawling and her oldest was just starting kindergarten, so, you can imagine the fun it was for me to take their pictures with ten years added to each of them.
In those ten years, Wendy and I have played Bunco and gone to Beth Moore conferences together, we have done Bible studies and spent time with dear friends praying for our children and husbands.
I value the example she sets of a godly mom and she has a heart that is so tender and genuine.
Here are a few pictures of her sweet family:

You may look at this picture and wonder why on earth of all the pictures would I pick one of hands. Hands are special to me. They hold memories and are filled with a lifetime of stories. These two hands are Wendy's and her daughter Brenna's.
I love the wedding band matched with the hippness of a high schooler.
My grandparents on my mom's side have both passed away, but one thing that forever will be etched in my mind are their hands. While I wish I had a picture of them to forever freeze them in time, I can remember them clear as day-my oldest daughter has my grandma's hands.

Lastly, meet Winston. He is for real...and oooh so soft!
I had a little fun with this one...I love a little old fashioned fun!
